Meantime Communist troops, according to U.S. intelligence sources, have been ordered to prepare for a cease-fire by extending their control in every way possible. They already dominate South Viet Nam's eight northern provinces, including the Central Highlands and several districts in the once secure Mekong Delta (see map). Nearly all of that control is a direct result of the Easter offensive. So far, they have no significant hold on population centers, which may explain their recent thrusts into Quang Ngai province south of Danang, South Viet Nam's second largest city...
...allows hot dogs to contain such animal features as esophagi, ears, lips and snouts. In the words of Robert Benchley: "Ain't it offal?" And even these ingredients do not exhaust the bad news. Hot dogs are brimming with additives, including sodium nitrite, sodium acid pyrophosphate and glucona delta lactone. Without such chemicals, the hot dog would lose its pink blush and turn the color of unwashed sneakers. The wiener may also contain "binders," like dried milk, cereal or starchy vegetable flour. According to Consumers Union, there can also be occasional insect parts and rodent hairs. Moreover, frankfurters...
...Connell and the Regents were sufficiently rankled by the publication of the list to challenge the rights of student editors to make the decision to publish. They maintained that O'Connell alone held such decision-making power. The Florida attorney general disagreed.

...bombing adds an entirely new dimension to the fighting in the Mekong Delta. A high-ranking U.S. military official, who refused to be named, said that he knew of "no B-52 civilian casualties"-though he later admitted that there might be a few. His office is right across the street from the hospital. The officer insisted that intelligence for the plotting of B-52 raids was good, then added, incredibly, that the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong had recently broken contact in the province, and that no one really knew where they were. In the American effort to eliminate...
