...larger rival. U.P.I. has invested more than $21 million over the past decade to automate its news-gathering operations and has opened a $10 million computer center in Dallas (corporate headquarters will remain in New York City, a few blocks from A.P.'s). U.P.I. began audio reporting for radio in 1957, and now supplies news reports to roughly 1,000 stations, 300 more than A.P.

...know whether Avord had the equipment for repairs, the plane had to go to Germany, but no one there knew of our impending arrival, much less of our mission or predicament. Fortunately, we established contact from the airplane with General Vernon Walters, our defense attache in Paris, in a radio hookup through Washington. Walters went to the Elysee Palace, where President Pompidou himself authorized his jet to meet my plane in Frankfurt...
