...satchel charges. At the same time, guerrillas hiding in a hamlet 1,000 yds. from the camp poured 55 rounds from 81-mm. mortars smack into the compound where 400 U.S. advisers lived. They were right on target. Fifty-two billets were damaged, including some totally destroyed. In one, Cartoonist Bill Mauldin, who happened to be in Pleiku visiting his son Bruce, a 21-year-old U.S. Army warrant officer, leaped up at the first mortar blast, scampered outside in his underwear (see THE PRESS). Within 15 minutes, the guerrillas pulled back, covering their retreat with recoilless rifles and rifle...
...Please accept my thanks for what TIME had to say about the regrettable photo-montage in Cologne's Stadt-Anzeiger [Jan. 22]. It was an excellent exposition of Cartoonist Harald Sattler's way of trying to be funny at the expense of our Shahanshah. However, TIME called the Shah an "Arab husband." But as the world knows, the Shah of Iran is neither an Arab nor does he act like an Arab husband...
Scene of the crime is an improbable Manhattan town house where Cartoonist Lemmon, abetted by his man Friday, Terry-Thomas, draws a James Bondish comic strip called Bash Brannigan. The place is a boy's garden of sex and violence. "No gay little chintzes, no big gunky lamps, the complete absence of a woman's touch," gloats Terry-Thomas. But one night at a bachelor dinner, someone wheels in a gigantic cake that gives forth a frosted blonde (Virna Lisi), and Lemmon, anesthetized by alcohol, begins to chew his cheeks like a man cutting a sweet tooth...

Into Saud's hand Austrian Freelance Cartoonist Harald Sattler had drawn a sheaf of banknotes with the Shah saying: "Okay then, make it 30,000 and you can have Farah Diba." Since Farah Diba is the proper Muslim wife of the Shah, and the Shah both a proud ruler and a properly possessive Arab husband, he found the pastiche not only unfunny but insulting...
...Shah. But it was too late. Iran had vigorously protested to the German Foreign Office, demanding legal action under Article 103 of the German Criminal Code, which forbids slandering foreign heads of state. Prodded by Lübke, the Cologne prosecutor sent four investigators to raid 25-year-old Cartoonist Sattler's apartment, presumably in search of some evidence supporting dark Iranian hints that Sattler's acid pen had been dipped in Nasser or Communist money. They found nothing of the sort...
