...Outlook. Meanwhile, the disease spread across the U.S. without consistent geographical pattern: the outbreaks were like separate, spontaneous grass fires. Perhaps because of crowded living conditions, Negroes in the South seemed especially susceptible. Climate made no difference. One of the states hardest hit, after bottomland Mississippi (with 100,000 cases), was mile-high Colorado, where health officers saw no hope of checking the flu's ravages before 10% of the population has had it. In all the U.S. only 16 deaths were so far attributed to complications of the disease (mostly pneumonia...

Wearing a dark Western business suit and a TV-blue shirt, greying, rock-jawed Bourguiba doughtily faced seven merciless hours of grilling in the TV glare. For U.S. consumption, Newsman Huntley stretched Outlook's normal half hour to a full 60 minutes, during which he also trekked through the ruins of Carthage, briefed viewers on Tunisia's tortuous history, and relayed some of the excitement attending Bourguiba's 54th birthday celebration. Poking around the minarets and parapets of old Tunis, the NBC cameras caught...
