Throughout the South, the quiet campuses of Negro colleges are smoldering with the unrest and resentments of an unquiet generation. One night last week, Houston's Texas Southern University, which is 95% Negro, erupted into a campus-style Watts. By morning, 488 students were arrested, one student and two policemen were wounded and a rookie cop was dead...
Demanding though the battle for the Delta will be, the rewards of cutting into the enemy's last rich refuge in Viet Nam will more than justify it. Even at unquiet stalemate-and occasionally in conditions of local accommodation between Viet Cong and government commanders-the Delta war has long been yielding up to a fourth of the enemy's losses each month.

They seal their defection with a kiss-as native bearers carry the appliances of the fat life into their cave...
...Brooklyn, he developed his galloping wit in a string of tough nightclubs before becoming the Jack of all television. Now, as a serious actor and no longer merely a situation comedian, he is surrounded by competing actors schooled in the Method, but he holds his own with unquiet confidence, bellowing, as he always has: "I'm the world's greatest." Entering his new career with appetite akimbo, he has already completed another film, Gigot, for which he wrote the story himself, and in Manhattan last week he was at work on still another, Requiem for a Heavyweight...
