John D. Ehrlichman has been given the boot, again. This time, he's being dumped by Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream--the Oakland-based company for which he has made a provocative television commercial.

Nixon who went to prison for conspiracy, obstruction of justice and perjury, was featured as a so-called "unbelieveable spokesman" for the low-fat ice cream that recently began to advertise itself as "unbelieveably good."

Haldeman and John D. Ehrlichman. He was feeling blue. Fifty minutes after he'd finished talking, hardly anyone had called to tell Nixon what a great speech he'd made. So he spoke to Haldeman.
