Monetary problems, notably the chronic U.S. balance of payments deficit and the international role of the dollar, will be one of the shared difficulties Nixon must discuss in each of the capitals he visits-London, Bonn, Rome, Paris.

At the time, the Knicks were fifth in the Eastern Division with an 18-17 record. Many of the team's troubles revolved around Bellamy, who slouched in the keyhole like a huge, 6-ft. 11 -in. question mark, playing won derfully one night and indifferently the next. DeBusschere's arrival allowed gan gly Willis Reed to move from the cor ner to his old position...
