...somber presidential adviser as Kissinger left a recent cocktail party with Barbara, her striking blonde hair set off by purple pajamas. Kissinger, 46, is one of the few eligible bachelors in the Administration, having divorced his wife of 15 years in 1964. But Barbara says, perhaps unconvincingly, "The reason Henry goes out with me is that he knows I'm one woman who is not husband hunting...
...early marriages. She and those other spooks just want to get their names in the paper. A few years ago, if you did something wrong, you were sent to the principal's office. Today the Roman Catholic schools are about the only ones that have discipline." For that reason, the Mitchells, who are not Roman Catholics, send their daughter Marty, 8, to the exclusive Stone Ridge Country Day School in Bethesda, Md., which is run by nuns of the Sacred Heart order...
...letter from Secretary of State William Rogers saying that granting Mandel a visa was "in the national interest," Mitchell last week refused to allow the 46-year-old economist to make another visit.

The faster MIG-21 was flown to Israel by an Iraqi pilot paid to defect by Israeli intelligence. Israeli pilots study and fly all four planes to learn their characteristics...
Politesse and Patience. An old Indo-China hand who once served in Vientiane and Hanoi during the French days, Rives concedes that "we're moving very slowly here." With good reason. Prince Sihanouk broke relations with Washington in 1965, partly because he considered the U.S. presence too big for comfort. It had grown to more than 200 people and an aid budget of $30 million a year. Nowadays, Sihanouk's chief fear is that a Communist victory in Viet Nam might encourage the 40,000 uninvited North Vietnamese and Viet Cong troops who now use Cambodia...
