...That his ex-boss, the director of the Office of Fiscal Services, is incompetent. The director, a ten-year veteran of the Harvard campus ministry named R. Jerrold Gibson '51, is a "Sancho Panza," Brown-Beasley claims, who is not qualified to direct Fiscal Services and who cannot freely use the technical advice of his own staff on computers because of a special veto power created by Hale Champion, vice president for finances...
...scandal threatened to touch still others in Washington. At week's end Gardner said that in 1972 or '73 she had stumbled upon Alaska Democratic Senator Mike Gravel making love to Ray on a houseboat owned by former Congressman Kenneth Gray of Illinois, Ray's ex-boss.

That divorced, unhonorable protégé of your ex-boss appeals only to the ignorant and uninformed Eastern Seaboard masses so easily led by TIME. Thinking Republicans are conservative and in opposition; the way back to constitutional government requires that we place our faith in God, country and self, not liberalism and material wealth swapped out for basic freedoms. Reagan is a clean top choice. Rockefeller as a vice-presidential candidate would be a necessary evil to carry votes of the misled...
