In a Damon Runyon style column the absurd loss of two cabbages on Hibiscus Island is recounted with witnesses, suspects, and a plaster cast sent to the FBI.

The piece ends with a wry quip about corned beef and cabbage.
A rugged 44 year old with a heavy build and fierce look hides a soft core. He claims he could whip anyone weekly, drinks heavily, and recites Robert Service poems late into the night.

Sen. John McClellan of Arkansas orders a Senate subcommittee to delay action on the consumer protection bill until after the Arkansas primaries. He faces Rep.

The story notes Nader’s push for federal consumer advocates, House passage of a diluted version, and secret lobbying aimed at sabotaging the bill. It also covers ITT Chile assets, OPIC reserves, and a separate report on North Vietnam–Soviet messages.
