Improbable as it may seem, no reigning monarch of Norway has ever visited the U.S. But now King Olav V, 64, is setting things right with a 17-day jaunt from coast to coast and back again. He met with L.B.J. in the White House, flew on to Florida, Texas and California, to Wisconsin's Scandinavian dairylands, to Chicago, and finally to Manhattan.

Last week in Manhattan, when Trippe, now 68, finally bowed out as Pan Am's boss, it seemed altogether fitting...

John Miller, a Harvard junior who came down because "all of a sudden I realized I didn't have any exams," was working on an A-frame shelter with a carpenterish-looking white man from Miami, Florida. At 3 p.m. Tuesday they were the only ones hammering. The man from Florida said he came because the 12 tribes of Israel are supposed to show up sometime before June 6 "right on this very spot."
