...estimated 45,000 Viet Cong have been in Binh Dinh, and in the largest operation of the war, 14,000 allied troops went in at three points to try to kill a sizable batch of them. Two hundred helicopters made 358 sorties to drop 5,500 men into Suoi Ca Valley, where a V.C. regiment was reported. Another 2,500 of the First Team were out to clear "Happy Valley" next door to the west, while Vietnamese marines and army battalions closed in from the coast. But as all too often in the frustrating war, there was virtually nobody home...

Muzzle blasts flared in the jungle darkness, and the marines killed one Viet Cong and captured 30 others. Sour Rice. Was such a small haul worth the effort? No one could measure precisely the toll of Viet Cong nerves and energy taken by the steady...
With Annie's ingenious aid, Daddy will soon break out of stir-but the ca per went on without the endorsement of the Hartford, Conn., Courant. Offended by the comic strip's pejorative attitude toward mental institutions and mental health, Courant Publisher John R. Reitemeyer suspended Annie for two weeks-"until she stopped preaching." After all, said Reitemeyer, nothing like that could happen in Connecticut, where "you just can't be railroaded" into a mental institution. Reitemeyer was also concerned about the effect on readers: "It would disturb people with relations in mental institutions, and it might...
