...varsity finished the week in an Anglo-American vein, defeating a combined team of Oxford-Cambridge players on the Business School flats. After one period of play before a large, shivering crowd, the score was tied at two goals apices. Spruance scored both goals for the Crimson...

He urged that the U.S. halt its military buildup of marines, guerrilla fighters and helicopters in northern Thailand until the Soviets had time to reply to the Anglo-U.S. truce offer.

Rusk was determined to get SEATO to declare that, if the Soviets did not respond favorably by midweek to the Anglo-U.S. truce offer, then SEATO "will take military measures to check further aggression." SEATO's Asian members-the Thais, Pakistanis and Filipinos, who live in the shadow of Communism-strongly endorsed such a stand. But Rusk learned on his very first night in Bangkok that SEATO's European...
