Sunday, August 31 MEET THE PRESS (NBC, 12:30-1:30 p.m.). This gathering of State Governors for the annual conference held in Colorado Springs features Democrats Buford Ellington (Tenn.), Richard Hughes (N.J.), John McKeithen (La.), and Republicans John Love (Colo.), Nelson Rockefeller (N.Y.) and Richard Ogilvie...
...Asia and Europe would eventually be reduced, if not eliminated entirely. Viet Nam, North Korea's pugnacity, the Russian invasion of Czechoslovakia and other bad news have deferred this realignment but not canceled it. Laird acknowledges that the American Seventh Army is in West Germany, for instance, more to meet political needs than strictly military ones. Although he places little credence in talk of detente with the Russians,* he does not rule out an eventual pullback from Europe. Technical developments in military transportation, such as the C-5A aircraft and fast supply vessels, give the U.S. increased capability for keeping...
...sought to break a deadlock with Nigeria over the Red Cross flights. The Nigerians, who shot down the Red Cross plane in retaliation for raids on their territory by Biafran light planes flown by Swedish pilots, have agreed to resumption of the flights -but only if Biafra agrees to meet two stiff conditions.

They must also land at Lagos or another Nigerian airfield to be searched for contraband...

By 1967, the plant was supposed to pump water from the Hudson River to a huge reservoir atop the mountain, then release it downhill to run hydroelectric generators during peak periods. Groups opposing the project because it would...
...Sergio's enthusiasm spills over to his priests. Regional groups of priests meet voluntarily every week to discuss sermon topics and common solutions to pressing problems; all of the diocese's 100 priests meet twice monthly to discuss similar issues with Méndez Arceo himself. The meetings are characteristically free: last spring some of the priests publicly criticized the Mexican hierarchy for dragging its feet on putting into practice the reforms of Vatican...
