By late afternoon, Mansfield and Acting House Majority Leader Hale Boggs had made their traditional adjournment calls to the President-in Brisbane, Australia, waking him from a sound sleep.

He is at his most inventive in his own composition, Brats, in which he draws a fascinating metallic sound from the piano by randomly attaching nuts and bolts to its strings...
Within five hours the battle was over, Lieut. Thung was a cowed and loquacious prisoner, and the ground was littered with the bodies of North Vietnamese dead. That brought to nearly 400 the number of enemy destroyed in Nathan Hale's continuing sweep of the coastal highland area, which has long been the sanctuary of the Viet Cong but is now an increasingly perilous area for an estimated 2,500 North Vietnamese troops...
