   BACKGROUND:  In the aftermath of the dismal showing by the
    Republican Party in last week's elections, Newt Gingrich,
  chief architect of the Republicans' "Contract With America,"
  announced that he will retire from Congress rather than risk
  the embarrassment of being ousted by his own party from his
   position as Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.
