King, 51, is enjoying the fruits of a long climb up the broadcasting ladder. Born Larry Zeiger in Brooklyn, the son of a neighborhood bar-and-grill owner, he broke into radio literally at the bottom, sweeping the floors at a small station in Miami. He soon became a disk jockey and by age 25 was doing his own morning talk show from Pumpernik's restaurant. A variety of financial problems interrupted his radio career in the early 1970s. But in 1978, Mutual offered him a job as host of a fledgling all-night talk show. Starting with just...
DIED. Gardner ("Mike") Cowles Jr., 82, founder-publisher of Look magazine; of a heart attack; in Southampton, N. Y. His father had built a newspaper empire, and after young Mike and his late brother John took over the flagship Des Moines Register, they began to buy radio stations in the 1930s.

...Nancy for the 15-minute flight to the White House lawn, where some 2,000 well-wishers awaited him. At the White House, the Marine jazz band serenaded the smiling couple as hundreds of gaily colored balloons were released. Reagan's high spirits were also reflected in his Saturday radio broadcast, taped at the hospital, in which he joked, "I don't have as much stomach" any more for the failure of Congress to slash federal spending. More personally, he urged those unsure of their health to see a physician and "tell them Dr. Reagan sent...
Though the Soviet Union officially denied it, the report suggested that Moscow might be ready to try a new approach in the Middle East. According to Israeli state radio, the Soviets last week offered to renew diplomatic ties with Israel, which Moscow broke in 1967 during the Six-Day War, and to allow increased emigration of the Soviet Union's estimated 2.5 million Jews. Moscow's asking price: an Israeli-Syrian agreement on the Golan Heights, part of which Israel seized from Syria during the 1967 war and formally annexed...
