...Junction shouts the ancient news that the rich are different from the poor: they have more money. Into broken-down Battersea comes the classy Kendall, searching for herself. In a few days she finds a factory job, a frowzy flat and a blond boy friend. The appalling squalor of the slums appeals to Kendall, largely because it seems to have the beat of life that was missing from her deadly home across the river in wealthy Chelsea...

...Junction is stained with the sooty slum aura that marks much of Poor Cow (TIME, Feb. 9), and with good reason. Both films were adapted from books by Novelist Nell Dunn. Though the story too often has the quality of pulpy sociology, Junction is saved from indistinction by Director Peter Collinson's extraordinary spirit of place, and by Suzy Kendall's chameleonlike ability to look and sound like ten different women in the course of a single film...

Last night while pulling radio watch (in the village of An-Nhut-Tan set on the junction of two rivers 60 miles S.W. of Saigon) I perused the 11 Nov. 1967 edition of the New Republic. (The magazine had been garnered from under a pile of Lifes, Looks, and Auto 67 that the smiling and somewhat distracted Red Cross girls had left at Company Hq. this afternoon). The article that caught my attention was "The Right to Recruit on College Campuses" written by Maurice Ford, a teaching Fellow at Harvard...

...established in a primitive country. Yet in that time, Westmoreland asserts that many of the enemy units have been pushed back to the frontiers, or prevented from crossing them. Large Communist forces are now in three bor der areas: in North Viet Nam along the DMZ; at the junction of Laos and Cambodia near Dak To; and along eastern Cambodia near Loc Ninh. With the extra U.S. troops expected early next year, the majority of them destined for combat instead of support duties. Westmoreland is convinced that he can keep the Communists there...

Fighting for Life. Elaborate engineering works built over decades were disdainfully brushed aside by the rampaging Rio Grande-which is known to Mexicans as Rio Bravo, the Wild River. Flicking away a heavy, 200-ft. weir at the junction of a main emergency floodway and a small subordinate channel, the 44.3-ft. tide poured into Mercedes and Harlingen, where a Spanish-speaking radio station ominously warned: "Get the lame, blind and old people to high land." But there is no high land in Harlingen (pop. 41,100), a citrus-market city 36 ft. above sea level, and the pitifully inadequate...
