These precautions may not, however, prevent the President's vacation from being interrupted. A number of antiwar groups plan to open a "fall offensive" for peace with land and sea demonstrations at the summer White House next week. And Nixon may well be witness to one of the least violent protests ever planned when a group of "Women Against War Toys" marches to the beach below his clifftop castle to construct an edifice of their own: a sand castle for peace...
...what follow-through there is. In the anti-inflation fight, the Administration hasn't come up with the necessary weapons. The Nixon policy of letting the market forces work their own will is tepid, tired, timid and ineffective. It's going to be a tough time this fall and next year in labor contract negotiations.

Taking the Smotherses' CBS place this fall will be Singer Leslie Uggams in a musical variety series. NBC and ABC also have big names to offer. On NBC, Bill Cosby will play a schoolteacher and Debbie Reynolds a sportswriter's wife. ABC will go with a musical variety series called Jimmy Durante Presents the Lennon Sisters Hour, strange as it seems, the sneak-preview of that show received high ratings last spring...
