...nice vision--certainly a lot nicer than Vietnam's current reality, in which 200 soldiers die each day. With Thieu out of power, maybe it could even come true. Anyway, Ngo Cong Duc explained it patiently. Twice he told the woman from the Christian Science Monitor that the Third Force did not plan on taking power from Thieu, and shook hands with some of the reporters. As the other reporters left, he smiled politely: he verged on seeming embarrassed...
...tightly packaged two-day campaign tour, the 52-year-old congressman spoke before student groups and the press at the Parker House in Boston; attended a $10-a-head fundraising cocktail party given in his behalf; taped interviews with the Christian Science Monitor and other local press groups; was the guest of honor at a dinner reception given by MIT's President Jerome Weisner; and addressed various other political groups, including Citizens for Participation in Political Action...
Maybe the Council on Wage and Price Stability is not the 90-lb. weakling in the Administration's anti-inflation lineup after all. Established 4½ months ago with a mission to "monitor" prices but no authority to order rollbacks, the council seemed pusillanimous in its first effort of consequence: an unsuccessful attempt to jawbone big price reductions from sugar refiners early in December.

Faced with charges that ranged from unnecessary surgery, falsification of records and failure to monitor the patient, University of California regents have agreed to pay Mrs. Walker's daily medical expenses-currently about $350 and going up all the time-for as long as she lives. Though Mrs. Walker may never come out of her coma, doctors estimate that she still might live...
...Ames Research Center have every reason to expect the 570-lb. nuclear-powered robot to survive the trip. If it does, it will send back closeup pictures and other data from the ringed planet. Of four Pioneers that were launched into solar orbit between 1965 and 1968 to monitor interplanetary space, all are still transmitting scientific data-even though they were designed by Pioneer's prime contractor, TRW Inc., to last only six months; only one is experiencing some difficulty with a solar sensor. Signals are also still coming from Pioneer 10, which is now heading...
