Tunisia's Habib Bourguiba was genuinely ill with infectious hepatitis, Iraq's Hassan Bakr appeared to have a diplomatic ailment, and Syria's Noureddine Atassi simply stayed home. But every other leader of the Arab League nations, as well as Guerrilla Leader Yasser Arafat, at week's end converged on Rabat for the first Arab summit in two years.

...those in the market for a single diaper (emblazoned, of course, with the Dior griffe) can get away for only $3; a gold safety pin to go with the Diorpers costs an extra $3. Price, obviously, is of small issue to the small issue of Morocco's King Hassan; his three daughters are regular "Baby Dior" patrons, as are Iran's Prince Reza (for whom Bohan designed a minituxedo) and Sophia Loren's nearly year...
