...unemployment compensation. Jack has played in one tournament and earned $1,405; Gary has yet to see a sixpence. And last week, with $57,000 up for grabs in San Francisco's Lucky International tournament, they were planning a trout-fishing excursion at Player's South African farm...

A Negro historian with a Ph.D. from Northwestern who has headed his school for 29 years, Clement takes pride in his skill in "race and human relations, first, and foreign relations, particularly African, second."

It is unrealistic to think that economic sanctions against the Smith government will force his downfall; unlss every country in the world is prevented from trading with Smith and the sanctions are supported by armed force, the Republic of South Africa and Portugal will give him all the materials he needs. It is equaly unrealistic to expect definitive action from the United Nations without the support of Great Britain and the U.S. Each nation must...
