...game was the most striking example of peaceful coexistence at the 19th Pugwash conference of scholars from East and West. In the meeting halls, the delegates, not so frolicsome, sailed rhetorical missiles-though there was general agreement that arms reduction would be wonderful (see p. 21). Georgy Arbatov, head of Moscow's Institute of American Studies, put the issue in perspective: "As long as the U.S.A. has superiority over the U.S.S.R., it is considered that everything is all right. For Americans are sure they are the good guys, intending no harm to anybody. But I assure you that...
...Gordon Allott of Colorado runs the Republican policy committee, reports to the weekly luncheon of Republican Senators on White House sessions with G.O.P. legislative leaders, and holds the Tuesday afternoon Senate-press-gallery news conference that was once Dirksen's private preserve. Maine's Margaret Chase Smith heads the Senate Republican caucus and will speak for it when it meets. Assistant Leader Bob Griffin of Michigan steps in for Scott when the minority leader is off the floor, and also takes the party headcounts; that too was a Dirksen monopoly. Scott also hopes to give Griffin four...
Once inside the cockpit, Minichiello held the carbine at the flight engineer's head and ordered Pilot Cook to head for New York. Cook laconically radioed the FAA control center in Oakland: "Rerouting to change to New York on account of hijacking."

Minichiello wanted the plane to head for Europe. TWA scrambled to find two pilots qualified for the transatlantic run, since Cook and the rest of the Flight 85 cockpit crew were checked out only for domestic flights. Pilots Richard Hastings and Billy Williams, both 24-year veterans at TWA, volunteered to go along. Minichiello allowed them aboard, but suddenly he got jumpy. He fired a warning shot, which ricocheted harmlessly off an emergency oxygen bottle on the cockpit ceiling. Then Minichiello insisted that the jet take off at once. Trailed by a small plane full of FBI men, it flew...
...head of a California conglomerate. I expect a Western version of controlled optimism, with touches of anxiety around the edges. Company men out here are always mentioning "the rising tide of Pacific business," the giant market in Asia barely tapped?"1 out of 18 jobs in the state is linked to foreign trade," one executive says. And the domestic market promises even more. By 1975, personal income in California will have soared to $110 billion! But David Mahoney, young and relaxed at 46, turns out to be 180° from the kind of executives I know back East. He sits behind...
