...Message to My Friends," smuggled out to Paris' Le Nouvel Observateur, Debray said that three days after his capture in central Bolivia, his life seemed doomed. "I was in very bad shape," wrote Debray, "and the excitement of the officers who were venting their anger on me, with no precise goal in mind, had reached its peak." They were "amusing themselves," said Debray, "by firing between my legs and as close to my head as possible." Then along came some Spanish-speaking CIA agents who "called a halt to such shenanigans, summoned a doctor and at first treated...
...person, Folk Singer-Poet Bob Dylan spoke for an age. Over the roaring roll of his guitar, he rasped out sarcastic, sardonic cries of anger, anxiety and alienation that made the young generation wince with the pleasure of recognition. In seclusion in Woodstock, N.Y., since a motorcycle spill in the summer of 1966, he became a legend. Folkniks trembled at rumors. Was he dead, dying, mindless, voiceless? To one of the few reporters who breached his fortress, Dylan laughingly replied: "They're all true." Meanwhile, Dylan in absentia loomed larger than Dylan in the flesh; last year four...
...because of the war always turns out to be the margarine of the poor." The President appeared to have broken finally with such Democratic stalwarts as Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman J.

The bills that he got through Congress in 1964 and 1965 all but completed the task of bringing the Negro to legal parity with America's whites. But progress, inevitably, was slower in the subtler and vastly more difficult task of improving the Negro's lot in terms of income, jobs, housing and education. For the nation's 21.5 million Negroes, the result was a mercurial mood of "hope mixed with anger," as FORTUNE reported this...
...Infantry Division base 50 miles north of Saigon, were three dead Viet Cong whose ears had been cut off by souvenir-hunting G.I.s. "You must understand," said CBS Newsman Don Webster, reporting from the scene, "the emotional state of some of these men, and their anger and sorrow at the loss of their buddies. A few days from now, these soldiers will probably be as aghast as anyone at what they've done." In the first U.S. war-crimes trial to come out of Viet Nam, two G.I.s involved in the mutilations have now been found guilty...
