...impenetrable as river sludge, traffic stopped, airports closed, and more than 100 ships swung helplessly at anchor. For four days and nights, the dark, satanic peasouper dumped grit and grime over 22 counties, cocooned 125,000 miles of icy roads, and caused 20,000 automobile breakdowns. The worst fog that London has known since the "Black Death" that took 4,000 lives in 1952's December, it left 136 known dead (the final toll was expected to be much higher) and more than 1,000 gasping patients in hospital beds...

A wingtip struck the ground, and the eerie, fog-shrouded night came ablaze. Emergency crews were on the spot within minutes, festooning the wreckage with fire-extinguishing foam. Of 46 passengers and five crew members, 26 survived-and 25 died...

With the mud and fog of Yemen's winter came a lull in the fighting between royalist guerrillas and the rebels who overthrew Imam Mohamed el Badr three months ago. But the danger remained that the distant little struggle could bring bloody conflict to other parts of the Middle East. In the hopes of isolating the feud, President Kennedy rushed off notes to Egypt's Nasser, Crown Prince Feisal of Saudi Arabia, Jordan's King Hussein and Rebel Leader Abdullah al Sallal, who now calls himself President of Yemen...
