The couples, together with Kissinger, Kosygin and Podgorny, watched the performance from a flag-draped box at the rear of the theater, and during the intermission gathered for a light buffet. Toasting the women at the table, Brezhnev gallantly reached into a bouquet of roses and handed one to Pat Nixon.

Hours before his scheduled appearance, stadium parking lots become agoras for hundreds who browse about looking at Dylan T shirts, posters and songbooks hawked by local vendors.
