...Cambodian port of Kompong Som (formerly Sihanoukville) was closed to them last spring, the Communists have had to rely solely on the Ho Chi Minh Trail to move men and supplies down to South Viet Nam and Cambodia. With the advent of the dry season, they have made fuller use of the trail than ever before (see box. page 28). American commanders have longed to cut the trail ever since the U.S. entered the war. Contingency plans providing for everything from hit-and-run attacks to a permanent troop barrier across the route were drawn up in 1965, but there...

...JERRY FULLER, white, 38, former $14,000-a-year electrical engineer who helped build the command module for the 1969 moon landing, is not sure he can hang on to the house in Granada Hills, Calif., where he lives with his wife Pat and three young daughters. "Welfare just doesn't pay enough to make the mortgage payments, buy food, pay doctor bills," he says. After he was laid off in April, 1970, by the North American Rockwell Corporation, he spent seven months seeking another engineering job. He still sends out resumes. But he has been able to find...

Rice was Merton's boon companion at Columbia University, his godfather for baptism in the Catholic Church, and a lifelong friend. It is nonetheless a fuller, richer portrait of Merton than any available, partly because Trappist censors seriously bowdlerized Merton's own books.

Merton the Columbia undergraduate emerges as an accomplished rapscallion, occasionally...

Follow the Tracks. Johnson has always acted to keep the odds in his favor. During the first months of his firm's operation, he held his job as production chemist at Chicago's Fuller Products Co., a black-owned cosmetics firm. He moonlighted nights and weekends, making the hair straightener in a rented place. Then he hustled as a one-man sales force through the city's black barbershops, and soon his swings took him to Indianapolis, Detroit and beyond. Working the black ghettos, he never needed research to pinpoint his sales area. "I knew...

...first installment of the recollections appears this week in LIFE and 19 foreign publications, and will be published in fuller form in December by Little, Brown under the title Khrushchev Remembers. Several days in advance, Tass carried Khrushchev's name on its wires for the first time in six years, in issuing a statement from him denying that he had "passed on" his reminiscences to any publication. "This is a fabrication and I am indignant at this," Khrushchev said. His language, however, fell far short of a blanket denial. Moreover, British Sovietologist Edward Crankshaw, who wrote an introduction...
