...powerful lobby, is not paying for the bumper stickers that the folds in the crowd are holding. "If Kennedy Wins, YOU LOSE." (Black on Day-glo Orange) "Ted Kennedy Drives Women to Drink." (White on Fire Engine Red) GO of New Hampshire, he tells me, is backing a new group called GO Against Kennedy. The organization ran ads in Shotgun News and GunWeek and used the money it brought in to pay for the stickers. That evening, during a Republican-stocked candidates' forum, Ted Kennedy is everyone's devil incarnate...
...every speech, Kennedy is strenuously attacking Carter from the liberal side on both foreign and domestic issues. Explains a top aide: "He's only comfortable with that, not tailoring his opinions to this group or that poll." Kennedy opposes draft registration. "I would rather do with less gas than shed American blood to defend OPEC pipelines," he shouts. And nuclear power: "There is no position for nuclear power in a Kennedy energy program." And on the economy: "I will stop inflation in its tracks." His aides believe that Kennedy draws most blood when he assails Carter for "not coming...

As racer after racer failed to break Stock's time, a small group of Austrian spectators outside the finish area began to sing Immer Wieder Austria (Again and Again Austria). When he had finally won, the Austrian team officials lifted Stock upon their shoulders, and he held his ski poles high in grinning triumph...
...initial success of the Israeli program has awakened enthusiasm for solar ponds in the U.S. Under an agreement with Israel, a group led by Southern California Edison is planning a five-megawatt demonstration facility at the Salton Sea, in Southern California's Imperial Valley. Under Government funding, scientists will investigate other potential U.S. solar pond sites, including San Francisco Bay and Utah's Great Salt Lake. Though their estimate may be somewhat optimistic, solar pond boosters figure that the new technology could eventually meet as much as 12% of U.S. energy needs and even more in Third World...
