Last week, after five grueling years in Moscow-a record for a U.S. envoy-slender (5 ft. 11 in., 150 Ibs.), baggy-eyed "Tommy" Thompson left for home and a new assignment as a special adviser on Soviet Affairs to Secretary of State Dean Rusk.

The silver trays on foy er tables whitened with visiting cards and notes...
