For "Reverend Brooks," read Actor Dick Van Dyke-filming a scene for a forthcoming United Artists movie, Cold Turkey, a whimsical story of a town whose citizens decide en masse to kick the smoking habit.

According to Nosaka, Kosygin made his request as soon as he reached Hanoi, but Peking had not bothered to reply by the time he departed five days later.
