Memory Fades. A showdown was bound to come, and last week Strauss proved that if he was not loved, at least he was needed. The autonomous Bavarian branch of the C.D.U. was split between a conservative Catholic wing and a liberal Protestant faction, and to heal the breach, an appeal was made to Strauss, a Catholic, to run for minister-president (governor) of Bavaria in November. Deliberately, Strauss let it be known that he was homesick after all, and perhaps it would be nice to return to Munich...
...control. Last week there were, in effect, two capitals: Algiers, precariously ruled by Premier Benyoussef Benkhedda, and Tlemcen, near Oran, held by Vice Premier ben Bella, whom his enthusiastic followers compare to the Congo's late rabble-rousing hero, Patrice Lumumba. In a desperate attempt to heal the split between the two factions, the military commanders of the six wilayas (zones) of Algeria met last week at the inland city of Orléansville, interrupting their talks only to take soundings in Algiers and Tlemcen.

Instead of consulting the touchy dictator in advance, he merely telephoned the Caudillo a few hours before the public announcement. Franco took the call aboard his yacht Azor, laid down the receiver after hearing the news, paced the deck, then...
...plays his best golf. "When I have a feeling that I might lose, it charges me up," he says. "It gives me added incentive. I just tell myself to try harder. It's a little like bleeding. First you have to stop the blood -then you try to heal the wound." Perfection. This year Palmer seems to have mended the only noticeable flaw in his game: his tendency to scatter his booming 300-yd. drives. "There's no such thing as perfection in golf," he says. "I'm playing better, and the main improve ment...
