...troops, with token support from East German, Polish, Hungarian and Bulgarian forces, crossed into Czechoslovakia. Whatever Dubček's miscalculations in conducting the most democratic experiment in Communism's history, he was undoubtedly right about the desires of the people. They have not changed. As the nation moved tensely toward the anniversary, both the Soviet Union and Prague's "normalized" leadership nervously prepared for outbreaks of defiance...
...Prague, the government stepped up its campaign to warn that it will deal harshly with disturbances. In thousands of leaflets, leaders of the liberal underground have called on Czechoslovaks to make the anniversary a national "day of shame" by boycotting state services; more than 200 people were detained for printing and distributing the leaflets.

"Our ideal," says Hoge, "is to give all the people a hearing for their point of view. We are selling the Sun-Times as a paper that is changing." Adds Dedmon...
...nation's courts should begin at once to develop a corps of trained administrators to manage the litigation machinery "so that judges can get on with what they are presumed to be qualified to do - namely, disposing of cases." Pointing to congested court dockets, Burger called for a conference within 60 days of ten or twelve of "the best-in formed people in this country" to plan a program to train the large numbers of managers that are needed. He suggests that no lawyers or judges, or very few of them, be asked to participate, since "we lawyers...
