...Texan-presidential in scale, but in detail the wedding bears all the diverse and diverting hallmarks of Luci Johnson. The bride-to-be is at once gay and fey and deeply religious. She displays Johnson traits in abundance: she is strong-willed and sensitive, voluble and introspective, fiercely loyal to her family yet irrepressibly independent. Lady Bird describes her younger daughter as both a "sprite" and a "philosopher." Lyndon Johnson once said: "I have known this little ruler all her life. She entered the world with a commanding voice and has been taking over ever since." Luci, who calls herself...
...outbreak is far too small to spark a keep-the-troops-at-home reaction. Marcos, who as a guerrilla leader became his country's most decorated World War II hero, intends to make it smaller yet. He has seeded the troubled area with loyal officials who fought with him against the Japanese, and has devised his own pacification program, a mailed-fist and velvet-glove approach...
...Tshombe. Then there were the 2,500 Katangese "gendarmes," whose fiery red-and-yellow scarves and flashing bush knives had figured in every Congolese conflict since the Tshombe secession of 1960.

Behind the trouble is a growing tension between Northern Ireland's 1,250,000 Protestants loyal to the Queen and the country's 500,000 Roman Catholics, who want closer ties with the Catholic-dominated Republic of Ireland. Last week Prime Minister Terence O'Neill's government took its first legal action against the man who has stirred up much of the recent trouble. He is big, garrulous Rev. Ian Paisley, 40, leader...
...contest with George C. Rawlings Jr. ,44, a Fredericksburg attorney and state legislator. The Eighth District was redrawn last year to include part of suburban Fairfax County in the north and some predominantly Negro areas in the south. Much of the territory between stayed loyal to Smith, but gave him smaller margins than he had expected. Suburban Fairfax went for Rawlings 2 to 1. With heavy Negro votes, Charles City County gave Rawlings a 7 to 2 margin, and New Kent County, 2 to 1. The result was a 645-vote victory for Rawlings out of nearly 54,000 cast...
