...Frishman said, "I don't care-as long as it's not pork fat and pumpkin." Lieut. Colonel James Robinson Risner (TIME Cover, April 23, 1965), who was shot down over Thanh Hoa later that year, was one of four U.S. pilots interviewed by the peace group. He told them that there was enough to eat and that the food was always "fresh from the stove." He said, probably facetiously, that he would try to get the recipes for some of the dishes before his release. In all conversations with prisoners of war, it obviously must be remembered...

Enduring Hope. Medical attention for the prisoners seems to be adequate. Frishman's arm was so badly damaged that he feared he would lose it. "It would have been much easier just to amputate the arm," he said. "But they operated and saved it."

Davis, the National Coordinator of the National Mobilization Committee to End the War in Viet Nam. A founding member of the S.D.S., Davis has been a longtime, virulent critic of the Viet Nam war and one of the most enterprising organizers of the radical movement. Dellinger and Davis are under indictment on charges of conspiracy to incite a riot during last August's Democratic Convention. With less than five hours left before his plane's departure, Davis managed...
...drowning of Mary Jo Kopechne caused Kennedy to renounce presidential ambitions, for the time being at least. Last week Muskie, 55, announced that he was tackling the other problem by forming two new groups of advisers. One will be a Washington-based circle of generalists with whom Muskie will meet, perhaps as often as once a week, to help stimulate his thinking and to keep him up to date on a variety of national concerns. The second group will include lawyers, economists and an assortment of professors around the country who will do research and writing chores...
