HEADING BACK: Three minutes after election of Britain’s new prime minister (A1), Sir Eldon Griffiths (above) was phoning Orange County, saying he’ll be back here by Sunday. Griffiths, a Conservative member of Parliament from Suffolk and president of Orange County’s World Affairs Council, was recalled to London to vote for prime minister. . . .

If you have a President who falls out of favor, you’re stuck with him.”
