Everyone knows that I am a nationalist." Says a Saigon police official: "Lau thought he saw a ceasefire and a coalition government coming. He was trying to swim between two currents. He thought...

When the state bar association held its annual gathering in 1968, he was not invited to speak-though the Ole Miss law school dean is traditionally a major figure on the program. The trustees began screening his faculty appoint ments, vetoing some of the men he felt would be most valuable.
