Shocking Facts. The Rosenbergs' two children, Michael, 10, and Robert, 6, were left to history. Now, under the name of the couple who adopted them (Anne and Abel Meeropol), Robert, 28, and Michael, 32, have come forward with a Rosenberg book of their own. It is anything but a literary experience. Half of the book consists of Ethel's and Julius' death-house letters.

Night Terror. Smith remains publicly confident, while privately he is negotiating with Bishop Abel Muzorewa, moderate chairman of the African National Council, Rhodesia's largest recognized black political organization.
