Throttling back their Soviet T-54 and PT-76 Soviet tanks and ar mored personnel carriers, maintaining air control by means of captured U.S. F-5Es and A-37s, along with Soviet MiGs, the Vietnamese started a second-phase maneuver. They moved along rural routes into isolated areas seeking to surround and wipe out the pockets they had bypassed in the initial rush. Unable to bring ar tillery to bear on such swiftly moving foes, the Khmer offered only brief opposition and then faded back to secondary defenses...
Conservatives such as Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ar.) have accused Carter of treacherously betraying our faithful allies on Taiwan, that "bastion of freedom and democracy."

The rally ended peacefully enough, but to supporters of Spain's fledgling democracy, the calls for an uprising reverberated frighteningly...
Sophomore running back Paul Connors, who runs like a cross between a sewing machine ar-1 a machete, burst up the middle for a 17-yd. pickup, his longest of the day, putting Harvard at the Lions' 25-yard line. But the drive finally petered out when on third down and seven yards to go for a TD, Sablock took a pitch out from Brown and tossed to Rich Horner, who caught the ball but landed outside of the endzone stripe. Bosnic then came on to give Harvard a 3-0 first-quarter lead...
