...over and hanging on. It is between a chance of survival and certain suicide." That ominous warning from London's conservative Daily Mail was echoed in many Western and African ministries last week. But if Rhodesia's Prime Minister Ian Smith got the message, he failed to heed it. Instead, the embattled Smith clung more tenaciously than ever to his minority government (273,000 whites v. 5.8 million blacks).

The election results...
...beginning was an obscure soft-core paperback original to which no one paid special heed. Then came the Patty Hearst kidnaping, and someone noticed that cheap fiction seemed to predict this sensational crime in detail, even including the plot twist that had the victim eventually embrace the captors' ideology. Parallels continue to turn up: recent reports indicate that Hearst surrendered to revolutionary sexuality even before succumbing to revolutionary politics-just as Abduction s heroine...
