Down swooped the gleaming Boeing 707 and out popped a coatless Prince Charles, a cool Princess of Wales and a romper-suited Prince William, blinking in the early-morning sunshine. The visitors had landed in Alice Springs, smack in the heart of the desolate Australian outback. From there, nine-month-old William was flown off to Woomargama, a comfy 4,000-acre ranch, where he will rest while his parents glide through their 25,000-mile, six-week tour of Australia and New Zealand, returning nine times to check up on their son and recuperate.

He also spoke by telephone with AFL-CIO Chief George Meany, New York Mayor Abe Beame, Chicago Mayor Richard Daley, Minnesota Senator Hubert Humphrey and a nearly forgotten Democratic vice-presidential candidate, Tom Eagleton. He talked to Philadelphia Mayor Frank Rizzo, whom he had once scorned as one of the "political bosses" to whom he owed nothing. "I really appreciate what you did for me," he told Rizzo, referring to the breakthrough victory in Pennsylvania...
...city is full of families and people having fun. I'd just love to stay for a whole month." Texas Delegate Glen Maxey, 24, and a friend, about to be turned away from the posh, 65th-floor Rainbow Room in Rockefeller Center because they were coatless and tieless, reminded the headwaiter that "your mayor told us we could go anywhere we wanted." The headwaiter smiled and, wonder of wonders, escorted them to a window table...
