<p> SPEAK SOFTLY, AND UNPLUG YOUR LAPTOP. George Bush's
peripatetic presidency is beginning to exhaust those who are
supposed to cover his every move. The White House travel office
notes a sharp decline in the number of reporters who
automatically accompany Bush on his constant domestic tripping--to speak at Republican fund raisers, plant trees and inspect
natural disasters. For those who still follow the President
wherever he may go, Los Angeles Times correspondent David Lauter
has invented "The Poppy," an award bearing Bush's childhood
nickname. It will eventually be bestowed upon the reporter who
maintains the lowest ratio of paragraphs published to miles
traveled with the President. The home offices may bristle, but
competition so far is stiff.
