...Brussels International Airport, where Nixon became the first U.S. President to visit Belgium since Woodrow Wilson arrived triumphantly in 1919 after negotiating the Treaty of Versailles. The President was met by Belgium's young King Baudouin, who led him down a 200-yd. red carpet to review a guard of honor. Nixon greeted NATO Secretary-General Manlio Brosio among the potted palms and pink azaleas of the royal tent, and then, with the King at his side, drove to the Palais Royale de Bruxelles...
...last night's sleeping pill as the 7 a.m. newsman, activated by the clock-radio, flicked through the details of yesterday's muggings, liquor-store holdups and sniper attacks. John groped for the light switch-and inadvertently brushed against the "panic button" on the $700 Tel-Guard alarm console connected to his telephone. Obediently, the system silently dialed the operator and automatically began repeating a recorded message: "Emergency at 250 Lincoln Street. Emergency at 250 Lincoln Street...

Always the patient man of compromise, he provided an elastic framework of government wherein Israelis' divergent political passions could coexist. "Put three Zionists in a room," Eshkol used to say, "and they will form four political parties." Israel has no fewer than 13 parties, and it is a measure of Eshkol's talent as a moderator that eight of them, representing 93% of the electorate, were in his coalition government...
...strength of the hoopsters' last two wins over B.U. and Northeastern, coach Ken Klug expresses little doubt that they will extend their streak by trouncing the Elis. Klug expects an excellent performance from the team's star, 5-9 guard Mat Bozek. Bozek has continued to dazzle his adversaries with his fine shooting and ballhandling ability. The success of the 6-6 Brian Newmark and the 6-5 Wayne Clapp in dominating the boards should give Harvard a big rebounding edge...
