...Faculty Club horse steak was publicized, following a comment by ex-Premier Khrushchev that ate horse meat because it has better than beef. The Associated noted that Harvard was one of the few places in the U.S. which regularly offered a good horse steak dinner. The horse steak in served with a sauce which, according to the teaching fellow with a taste for cuisine, suitably enhances the sweetness of the meat. "Onions could be all wrong," he added...
...five months to the day since Khrushchev's lieutenants had deposed him, and this glimpse of him quite naturally raised a lot of questions. How was he faring? Where was he going?

Political leaders of the U.S.S.R. appeared on TV applauding the flight. But there was none of the gay banter of one of Nikita Khrushchev's conversations with orbiting cosmonauts. Party Chief Leonid I. Brezhnev picked up a white telephone and did his leaden best. "We applaud you," he said to the Voskhod II. "We await you in Moscow." Congratulatory messages arrived from all over the world. The Pope and President Johnson both offered applause...
