Fearful of just such a maneuver, Israel's Premier David Ben-Gurion tried to counter by sending a high-level emissary to Bonn to ask West Germany to plead Israel's case with the other NATO nations, almost was forced to resign when left-wing members of the Cabinet raised...
...Dopesters who five weeks ago hailed M.I.T.'s Dr. James R. Killian Jr. as the new U.S. missile czar are discovering that Killian is not-and never intended to be -any such thing.

Possible choice: Australia's Father Daniel O'Connell, head of the Vatican Observatory. To replace ailing Cardinal Canali as deacon, the Pope will likely choose one of several Vatican monsignori. Among best bets for the remaining...
