A Burning Question

Should Jerry Brown get married? The California Governor's Republican opponent, Evelle Younger, has suggested that even the shrewdest politician would be educated and improved by the experiences of domesticity. Brown's own father, ex-Governor Pat Brown, chimed in that he would be pleased if his bachelor son would marry Singer Linda Ronstadt, with whom Jerry has been keeping company.

To settle this sizzling issue, the Los

Angeles Times polled its readers on the question, "If Jerry Brown were to marry Linda Ronstadt, would that make you think more highly of him, less highly, or would that make any difference one way or the other?"

The answers to this church-and-state debate:

More highly: 6%.

Less highly: 4%.

Unsure: 2%.

No difference: 88%.
