...RETURN OF THE VANISHING AMERICAN, by Leslie A. Fiedler. Ever the academic gadfly, Fiedler now argues that the Indian is the central figure in American mythology and that his spiritual heir is today's hippie...
...tenth of the population. Last month Myrdal's group staged a torchlight parade that brought 6,000 marchers into Stockholm's snowbound streets. In a move that is highly unusual for a technically friendly government, the marchers were led by none other than Erlander's heir apparent, Olof Palme, 41, the Education Minister.

For the Borbóns-the Spanish branch of the Bourbons-it was a heady occasion indeed. The baby's great-grandmother, 80-year-old Dowager Queen Victoria Eugenia, ended 37 years of exile (most of it self-imposed) to fly in from Nice for the baptism...
