...refused bail, and the trial goes on. Hawk will continue to argue that inexperienced authorities panicked under the glare of publicity. He claims that the murders probably were committed by a homosexual (some of the bodies were found with pants down) and points out that Corona has been found to be "hopelessly heterosexual...
...themselves in individual conversations with the children, shook hands, danced and even had two of the children help Rabbit and Christopher Robin free Pooh from Rabbit's front door where he was stuck.

A case in point was what Australia's former Prime Minister John Gorton describes as "one of the greatest fun evenings I can remember." On a cruise off Queensland on the royal yacht Britannia, "people decided that everyone else ought to be thrown in the water," says Gorton. Prince Philip was thrown in, and then Princess Anne. I was sitting beside the Queen. I was about to throw her in, but I looked at her and there was something...
