Mayor Sam Yorty Book Aims to Shape His Image
The piece reviews a new campaign booklet titled The Yorty Years, a 50 page publication highlighting Mayor Sam Yorty’s leadership in Los Angeles since 1961. It covers his stance on water projects, development, police community relations, and civic plans while contrasting his role with rivals and noting reprinted Morrie Ryskind columns. The article suggests the brochure seeks to frame Yorty as a dominant California figure ahead of the election season.

For Mankind vs America in the Space Era Debate
The piece surveys Cold War space history and the 1962 missile crisis, contrasting U.S. Apollo progress with Soviet space militarization. It cites Khrushchev’s stance, Kennedy’s Latin American aid, and Paul Bethel’s claim that the crisis was a hoax to spur détente. The author argues space achievement should serve all mankind rather than narrow national interests.

Nixon's Asia tour signals shift toward self reliance
PAUL HARVEY reports that President Nixon’s world tour signals a withdrawal from Asian affairs and a push for self reliance by regional powers. Officials voice uncertainty on future U S economic aid as Nixon stresses distant fulfillment and consistent U S restraint. The tour leaves Thailand facing unclear commitments while Bangkok rests on firm American support against external and internal threats. US foes and allies alike may see reduced American military involvement and a move to fund state aid rather than send troops.

A skeptical view of national polls argues most surveys are unreliable for gauging public opinion. The author questions Gallup's sampling of 1,419 people and the extrapolation to millions, suggesting the methodology misleads on Kennedy’s public esteem and overall poll significance.

Polls Show Feelings Drive Kennedy Fitness Perception
Henry J. Taylor quotes Henry Roper and notes polls on Senator Edward M. Kennedy reveal emotion more than thinking behind presidential fitness. He cites West Germany Jews poll error, Kennedy Bay of Pigs and Dallas events, and shifts in Truman Eisenhower Kennedy Johnson ratings. Public response, says Taylor, reflects feelings rather than thoughtful evaluation.
