...Though BULGARIA is already Eastern Europe's most rigidly orthodox Communist country, it has ordered yet another "firm, systematic, irreconcilable offensive" on dissidents. So has RUMANIA.

Violence in the name of the game of soccer is a worldwide phenomenon, hardly unique to Israel. Altercations are so common that in Bulgaria, for instance, a judge set up his court on the sidelines to prosecute offenders on the spot, while in Rio de Janeiro one team requested that the moat built round their field be stocked with piranhas.
