...Viet Nam veteran, I think Lieut. Galley should be court-martialed, fined $2, given a carton of cigarettes, promoted to captain and reassigned to the Pentagon. What I gather from reports is that My Lai was a V.C. village, and Charlie Cong is not a conventional soldier, but a toothless old woman, a goateed old man or a mine-setting little boy. Lieut.

With Brooker, 63, as chairman and chief executive, and Container Corp. President Leo H. Schoenhofen, 53, as president, the holding company would run both firms as autonomous subsidiaries retaining their own identities. Stockholders of both companies still must approve the combine, but Brooker cannily concocted a deal so sweet that Container shareholders, at least, should find it hard to spurn...
