...regime is still putting up a tough facade. In a meeting with his military leaders, Ho Chi Minh last week declared that peace will come "only when all American aggressor troops are completely swept out of our country and the puppet traitors are overthrown."

It is bellicose talk, but no American analyst could say for certain whether Ho really meant it-or whether it was only rhetoric intended to strengthen the Communists' bargaining position before they enter serious peace negotiations.

...Eglise and Bénouville, both in drop zones for Allied paratroops, are still haggling over which was liberated first (Bénouville was). To the thousands of tourists -mostly French-who come every year, the claims and counterclaims make little difference.

Their emotional reaction reflected a measure of reality. A second look at specialization has suggested that the generalist is not obsolete after all. Technical knowledge becomes outmoded at a breathtaking rate. It has been estimated that one-half of what an engineer studies in college will be superseded ten years after he graduates.

Using pear-shaped rackets that look like relics of turn-of-the-century lawn tennis, players bounce their serves off shedlike roofs (a throwback to the monastery cow stalls) extending around three sides of the court. Though the scoring is almost identical to that of lawn tennis, the methods of attack are different. Points are scored by driving the cloth ball off a slanting 3-ft.-wide wall called the tambour (the monastery's flying buttress) at unreturnable angles, or by knocking...
