...HOLLOW CROWN-PART II (CBS, 9-10 p.m.). Four Royal Shakespeare Company players recite poetry, speeches and letters, both humorous and poignant, by or about British monarchs, from Charles II to Queen Victoria...
...hours rehearsing with Y "handheld self-maneuvering unit"-the gadget that was to help him walk around in space. The device weighs 7½ lbs., has two small cylinders of compressed oxygen belted to a handle that also acts as a trigger to send jets of air through two hollow tubes, each 2 ft. long.

Not even the French were able to penetrate it. Managing to lure two Viet Cong battalions out of the forest and into a "hollow square" defense perimeter, government infantry pounced, as "Cobras"-armed U.S. helicopters-moved in with close support. While naval support craft slammed away with cannon from a nearby canal, the helicopters herded Viet Cong prisoners out of paddies like so many sheep. Then in swept U.S. Skyraiders and B-57s, splashing...
