Hanoi and the N.L.F. repeated their demands for unconditional withdrawal of all U.S. and "satellite" troops in South Viet Nam, which the U.S.'s Henry Cabot Lodge bluntly rejected.

Ford is attempting to attract young buyers by offering the Maverick in colors that were created at a group brainstorming session, presumably held in a cornfield.
