BEETHOVEN: SONATA NO. 32 IN C MINOR, OP. 111 (Vanguard). Australian Pianist Bruce Hungerford won critical hurrahs in 1965 when he played five Beethoven sonatas in Carnegie Hall, and the reason is now engraved on vinyl. His interpretation of this late (written five years before the master's death) great two-movement sonata is extremely moving-the first furious buildup dissolving into a tender singing adagio that transcends all that went before...
...reasons for Nixon's increased pace were clear. He had to maintain interest in the contest so unkindly rendered meaningless by George Romney's withdrawal. He needed more than ever to hold the spotlight lest it wander to the late-blooming Rockefeller write-in campaign. And looking beyond New Hampshire, he had to sustain the momentum that so far has put him ahead in the competition for the Republican nomination...
...Target. Enemy troop movements of late have led the command of General William Westmoreland to revise its estimates of the likely next big move of North Viet Nam's General Vo Nguyen Giap.

The 304th NVA division, which was south of Khe Sanh, has been moving with truck convoys through the A Shau valley toward Hué. If Hué rather than Khe Sanh is the enemy's big target, that will not bother...
...electrifying days late last month, a spectacular rumor spread among U.S. scientists. British astronomers had detected signals so regular and pulsating so rapidly from four different regions in outer space that they might have been sent by intelligent beings. Last week, when details of the British findings reached the U.S., the possibility that the pulsations had been artificially produced by an advanced civilization seemed remote. But even if the causes were natural, scientists on both sides of the Atlantic were in firm agreement that discovery of the pulsing signals, named "pulsars" by the British, was one of the major astronomical...
...bill reflects the changing function of the postwar ROTC. The bill provides for increased scholarship assistance to ROTC cadets planning to enter active service after graduation, as well as $40-$50 monthly allowances to all cadets in the advanced program. It also allows students to enlist in ROTC as late as their junior year of college. Supporters of this change argued that ROTC units would attract more potential career officers if students could defer their decision until after their second year...
