...heard argument is that Ho should be left alone to reunify Viet Nam, since he would doubtless emerge as the Tito of Southeast Asia and hence become a man who could be dealt with reasonably by the West.

Royal Scandal. Nasser was dealt an even sharper blow in the Trucial States,* which lie on the Gulf side of the horn of Arabia. There, in the tiny, impoverished sheikdom of Sharja, where Britain has an R.A.F. base, Sheik Sakr bin Sultan al-Kasimi has long been the Gulf's only pro-Nasser ruler.

Despite injuries, the football team performed admirably. Torbert McDonald became the first member of the Class of 1940 to make the first string. Harvard beat Princeton, 34-6, and then dealt Yale its first defeat of the season. The victory over Princeton was the first since 1923 and the first major-game win for Harvard under Coach Dick Harlow...
