...Hunan Style Chinese Cookbook (Harmony Books; 145 pages; $10), Chung relates charming anecdotes from his native Li-ling county and introduces many worthy dishes, notably hot and sour chicken, fried asparagus in hot black bean sauce and, for breakfast, steamed thin-sliced pork with fermented black beans. Ni hao, Mr. Chung...
After much fingering, it is courteously returned to Subject Ma. After this a quintet of F.F.s take a stroll through Wusih's back streets. They are immediately surrounded by laughing, chattering locals, many descending from homeward-bound bicycles. "Ni hao! Ni hao!" (How do you do?) Congeniality on such a scale can be slightly frightening, but it is authentic and spontaneous. Back in the hermetic bus on the way to the railroad station, Richard Lloyd Jones, president of the Tulsa (Okla.)

...kuang, 39, and his wife Wang Yen-liu, 36, are field hands on the Ta Li People's Commune near Canton. Country people fare quite well, at least in fertile farming areas.

The fighting has been serious enough for circumspect Hanoi newspapers to admit that "veterans do not hesitate to open fire...
...disorder will not be tolerated, though thievery and muggings still take place. Attacks on North Vietnamese troops continued at least until late last fall. Larger-scale resistance continued in the countryside, carried out by units of ARVN soldiers, Montagnards and members of the anti-Communist religious sect, the Hoa Hao, which still controls much of the Delta. The Communists claim that some 7,000 "enemy troops" have been captured in the past six months. Though the anti-Communist holdouts do not pose a serious threat, the North Vietnamese have not yet withdrawn their estimated 20 divisions (200,000 soldiers) from...
