Died. György Lukács, 86, Communist theoretician; in Budapest. Though often called "the greatest Marxist since Karl Marx," the courtly ideologist still managed to offend both Lenin and Stalin.

He survived periodic purges to join in the chorus of denunciation later directed against Stalin. A champion of such Communist heresies as pluralism and literary freedom, Lukács took part in the 1956 Hungarian uprising. He managed to avoid punishment and resumed...

Most hospitals require patients to stay from...
...cops pumped CS gas into Bogside continuously during the attacks. Though the gas is made in England, none had been used in Britain before Derry. Nixon once said that it was all right to use CS gas against students because no one had ever died from it. Movement medical cadre in this country have said often that someone with asthma could die from it. In Bogside, a nine-month-old baby died from the gas that permeated the city...
