"I haven't made a dent in any of my debts yet," protested Watergate Witness John Dean last week. "I don't even know when one receives money after a lecture. I imagine it will be months before it comes in." Though he is pleading poverty, Dean has announced that he will end his five-week lecture tour on March 15. Not even offers of $6,000 per speech, which he claims to have received, will keep Richard Nixon's old nemesis from abandoning the college circuit. Instead, Dean plans to begin work on a book about Watergate and a novel "about the first black woman named to the Supreme Court"—a story, he promises, that will have some laughs.
