Although the flu, squads of picketers, and a bomb scare marred the recent visit of Yugoslav President Tito, the trip could not be called a failure by either the guest or the host. For many years Tito had wanted an official invitation to enhance the stature of his independent Communism and himself.

...engaged" to Marianne Hoobler, a pediatrics nurse in Cincinnati whom he has known since the first grade. Quiet and composed as he is, his friends know that there is still some good old-fashioned tomfoolery in Navy's model midshipman. Last June he tossed a water bomb into the room where Fullback Pat Donnelly and Guard Fred Marlin were studying for exams.
