Equation of Agony. Weeks sometimes go by when as many as 16 major U.S. operations are under way-and no major contact is made anywhere because the enemy is ducking battle. Unless more U.S. combat troops are thrown into the hunt, or a different strategy of utilizing their present strength is found, the gains from the undeniable American and South Vietnamese progress of the past 18 months may flag. That might dim the hopes for a spreading pacification effort and the fledgling process of nation building, which could, if all goes well, get a powerful stimulus from the coming September...
Ironically, the man whom Wilbur will replace next year, and who was installed as the A.M.A.'s president last week, is one of the association's most conservative members. Dr. Milford O. Rouse, 64, a Dallas gastroenterologist, is personal physician to Oilman H. L. Hunt, a former director of Hunt's far-right Life Line Foundation, and a member of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, an ultra-conservative political-action group.

Snarling Lessons. Tors's way with the wild began in Budapest, where he studied zoology as a pre-med student. He came to Hollywood as a screenwriter in 1940, but it was not until the mid-1950s, while filming a sea-horse opera called Sea Hunt, that he became impressed with the good manners of the sharks: he visited them in their underwater sets almost daily, was never once attacked.

Bell Aerosystems, British Hovercraft's licensee in the U.S., has manufactured hovercraft that have been used success fully in an experimental ferry run across San Francisco Bay and as high-speed gunboats to hunt down Viet Cong in the Mekong Delta. It has just sold its first two commercial craft to an Alaska firm that will use them to supply offshore drilling operations. Using the hover principle on land, a French hover train, suspended above a monorail by a thin cushion of air, has already reached speeds of 190 m.p.h...
...worker. "When he'd wrestle, he'd always have to win. Now he can win with me. He's a better man than me now. He doesn't sass the captains. He's a good, red-blooded American boy." Buck taught his son to hunt and fish in the dense woods near by. Schoolmates of Counter Guerrilla Glide still recall how, when he was twelve, he converted a cap pistol into a zip gun and shot a deer, then dived into a river to wrestle it out and into the family larder. Glide Brown...
