...from the garage, the police commanded the outlaws to take off their clothes and come out one by one. Clad only in dark shorts, the first to surrender was Holger Meins, 30 (left), a key member of the notorious terrorist gang bossed by West Germany's "Bonnie und Clyde"-former Journalist Ulrike Meinhof, 37, and Student Revolutionary Andreas Baader, 29 (TIME, June 5). After a second man also surrendered, police rushed the garage, where they found a big prize. Baader was lying on the floor with a bullet wound in his left thigh (center, right). As he was carried...
...bombings appear to be tied to the notorious criminal gang led by West Germany's "Bonnie und Clyde" -sometime Journalist Ulrike Meinhof, 37, and Student Revolutionary Andreas Baader, 29 (TIME, Feb. 7). Meinhof and Baader, whose previous exploits included bank robberies, car thefts and shoot-outs with police, took credit for bombing the Army headquarters in Frankfurt.

But many astronomers have never given up hope of finding a tenth planet even farther from the sun. They have been encouraged in their search by irregularities in the orbit of the eighth planet, Neptune, which some suspect could be caused by the gravitational tug of a mysterious "Planet X." Until now, however, all efforts to sight Planet X have failed...
...Sandy Dennis in Any Wednesday in 1964. Meanwhile, he had edged into movies with a small part in Lilith. Recalls Warren Beatty, the picture's star: "It was only a two-minute scene, but the best thing about Lilith was Gene Hackman." When Beatty was casting Bonnie and Clyde three years later, he thought of Hackman for the role of Clyde's brother Buck. Hackman's performance won him an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor, and the offers began coming...
