While their map is the clearest view yet of Venus, the Caltech researchers are not the only radar astronomers mapping that planet. Similar surveying is being carried out by Cornell scientists using the 1,000-ft. dish telescope at Arecibo, Puerto Rico, and by MIT astronomers at two sites in Massachusetts. In March, Venus will again approach Earth. By boosting their radar signal to 450,000 watts, Caltech's electronic cartographers expect to make even more detailed maps...
...impatience-in Hanoi's approach. Was the North seeking a face-saving way of conceding that its troops are fighting in South Viet Nam-an admission that the U.S. says is essential to any discussion of further reductions in its bombing of the North?

These statistics show a strong trend in voter support for Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy. Although victory seems secure, there has been no let down in McCarthy's campaign; his forces want the clearest possible victory...
...half a million well-trained troops, abundant supplies and the greatest concentration of firepower in history, Westmoreland was not able to achieve greater success.

Strategy aside, however, his clearest single failure was not to have built the South Vietnamese army into a respectable fighting force. His deputy and possible successor, General Creighton ("Abe") Abrams, 53, has made ARVN his principal concern for the past year...
...twice the size of their Northern enemy's. And though Korea depends on U.S. industry for weapons and some supplies, this hardly explains why two U.S. divisions patrol one third the length of the 38th parallel armistice line. The need for greater flexibility in our allied bonds is the clearest lesson of the Vietnamese mess. Vance's mission, however, ties an ostentatious knot in an unnecessarily tight U.S. commitment...
