...Arabic script on Egyptian ships. "The court produced evidence that the Israeli armed forces had ample opportunity to identify Liberty correctly," said the summary.

In and around honky-tonk Tijuana, 17 miles from San Diego, more than a dozen new plants have sprouted to produce such things as magnetic memory cores for Litton Industries and power transistors for Fairchild Camera. Factories in Mexicali make integrated circuits for Raytheon and motor parts for Western Gear. In Nuevo Laredo, southwest of Laredo, Texas, Mexican workers are doing everything from making electronics parts for Transitron Electronic Corp. to sorting supermarket "cents-off" coupons for the A.C.
