Happy to help. Poetess Moore forthwith suggested "The Ford Silver Sword" (a rare plant found only in the crater of Hawaii's volcanic Mount Haleakala), also the word Hurricane combined with a series of swift birds-Hurricane Hirundo (swallow), Hurricane Aquila (eagle), Hurricane Accipter (hawk). Slightly alarmed at the Moore deluge, business-wise Wallace warned: "It is unspeakably contrary to procedure to accept counsel-even needed counsel-without a firm prior agreement of conditions (and, indeed, to follow the letter of things, without a Purchase Notice in quadruplicate and three Competitive Bids).

The Arabs feel the uncertainty of Gaza's status, and scent change. Urchins openly hawk cigarette lighters bearing Nasser's picture. Authorities last week arrested 20 Gaza teachers for assigning teen-age pupils to write essays on the need for killing Israelis.
