...musicall potent "scenes." Eric von Schmidt is a lover of Cmabridge's own folk scene, and his 309-page book, Baby Let Me Follow You Down documents it all in words and photographs. Most would say this scene went out of existence with the last Molotov cocktail that flew through the window of the Charlesbank Trust Co. But to von Schmidt, the Cambridge folk scene survived the flames and cultural demolition which devoured "the moment" at the end of the '60s. The Cambridge folk scene, he asserts, is a part of American musical history...
After his aerial inspection of the West Bank, a weary Strauss flew to Alexandria, where he met Egypt's Anwar Sadat on the manicured lawn of the President's beach-front villa at Mamura. Sadat appeared solemn and strained before their hour-long talk. But when the two later greeted newsmen, a more relaxed Sadat referred to Strauss as "Ambassador Bob." Sadat said that following his meeting this week with Begin in Alexandria, he would immediately consult with Carter and Strauss on how "to keep the momentum going in the peace process." He warned that unless there...
...State Viron Vaky, who told a congressional subcommittee: "Nicaraguans and our democratic friends in Latin America have no intention of seeing Nicaragua become a second Cuba and are determined to prevent the subversion of their anti-Somoza cause by Castro."

The Americans' mission: to seek agreement on a new peace...
...broadcasts from his bunker, Somoza last week declared that he was "ready to resist until my death"; not so his long-time mistress, Dinorah Sampson, who flew to one of Somoza's many properties in southern Florida. Although it has suffered heavy casualties, the 12,000-man national guard is getting weapons and ammunition from Honduras and Guatemala, and remains more than a match for the rebels in any conventional shootout. But there are faint stirrings of discontent within the guard, which at this point is the only significant segment of Nicaraguan society that backs the dictator. Said...
Obsession with secrecy was equally futile. Commanders on the carrier Essex won permission to let their pilots overfly the beach only after the aircraft insignia were obliterated with gray paint. But only the U.S. Navy flew the A-4D jet fighter, whose distinctive silhouette was instantly recognizable. Similarly, a crew was sent over the side of the destroyer U.S.S. Eaton to paint out the ship's name. Yet the vessel's outline could be clearly identified as that of a U.S. warship; at binocular range, even the raised lettering could be read...
