A Copiey Editorial Service piece urges the Republican Party to recruit capable local leaders to run in 1978 and 1980 races. It argues voters are discerning and party labels matter less, so the GOP must redefine its principles and groom candidates from civic leaders to compete across federal, state, and local contests.
The Air Force Academy reports 6.37 percent dropout rate for women after 15 weeks, compared with 10.24 percent among 1,536 entering men. Maj. Gen. Jeannie Holm notes women succeed beyond expectations and seek greater integration with male squads, amid housing separation concerns.
Doctor Huffman a Leipzig educated physician in New York’s Lower East Side battles a growing, conflicted affection for his son Ava. He treats poor immigrant patients with care while contending with the danger of excessive love, enforcing discipline with spankings as Ava doubts his devotion.
The narrative traces Ava Huffman’s rise from a poor, ambitious boy to a renowned psychiatrist who ignores poverty to chase wealth. He studies in Vienna and New York, marries, has son Manfred, and pursues prestige with lavish fees and a grand social schedule. His success masks emptiness as his son drifts into trouble, and Ava’s world collapses when Manfred dies, leaving Ava孤 lonely and nearing old age.
In Washington a Republican governor conference urged party unity and a technocratic chair, citing Bob Strauss as a model for building a bipartisan apparatus. James R. Thompson suggested moving past ideological brawling to win elections, while John B. Connally outlined two conditions for taking the chair, including backing from Ford Rockefeller and Reagan camps.
The Pentagon denies Soviet laser attacks on US satellites and says hunter killer satellites are being tested. The column argues three decades of aggressive basic research failed to boost safety, urges disarmament talks, critiques Kennedy and Carter era views, and endorses limited strategic options amid growing Russian capabilities. Connally as GOP chair is deemed unsuitable due to charisma over pragmatism.
Oklahoma State University narrows its search for a new president to nine prospects. The piece jokes that a slightly different football season could have affected Coach Jim Stanley's chances and notes Carter administration job hiring biases against Oklahomans, hinting at political considerations in employment.
