Peace. A few hours later, at a nuclear submarine keel-laying in nearby Groton. Conn., Johnson was the Great Peace Seeker, warning against the rash use of military might. In an obvious crack at his probable November opponent, Barry Goldwater, Johnson said: "Those who would answer every problem with nuclear weapons display not bravery but bravado, not wisdom but a wanton disregard for the survival of the world and the future of the race...
...that might have been written by a UNESCO pamphleteer. Sometimes the movie simply stops to preach. "This baby feels hunger and cold and loneliness, just like you and me," says Bob. "I can't see anything funny about this situation." And there's the rub. Or the rash. To help Hope out in the pinches, a group of seductresses billed as The Global Girls troops through: Yvonne De Carlo as a Spanish floozy whose secret weapon is flamenco; Lilo Pulver as a brusque, weepy vodkaholic making a case for the U.S.S.R.; Miiko Taka as an ah-so Geisha...
...Francisco $1,350,000. U.S. companies that had insured the manufacturers of thalidomide suffered losses when the drug proved harmful to the unborn.

This was mostly due to a rash of write-ins, including 52,322 for Henry Cabot Lodge and 24,710 for Richard Nixon. Even more discouraging, more than 200,000 Republicans who voted for a gubernatorial candidate did not bother about the presidential primary...
Grandma had the best name for the disease: "threeday measles."* The usual symptoms are a mild sore throat, a light rash, and a fever of not more than 102°. In children, some swelling of the lymph glands is common but is usually not severe. Only rarely does the virus of three-day measles lead to pneumonia or brain inflammation. But it may occasionally be fatal. Last week three children's deaths associated with the current epidemic had been reported from Chicago, and a Connecticut teen-ager had died of encephalitis. Less predictable and less understood is a complication...
