Bail hearings for Scale began early in April. It seems likely that the tapes allegedly found in the Panther headquarters in the May 22 raid and the testimony of Sams and Kimbro will be the main items in the prosecution's case. It is not known exactly what Kimbro will testify. Voices on the tape-which were identified as being those of some of the defendants by Loretta Luckes-do not include Bob-by Scale...
...jets accidentally bombed an Egyptian industrial plant at Abu Zabal in February, killing 80 workers. Two months later, 30 Egyptian children died when Israeli planes hit a building at Bahr el Bakr that they believed to be a military installation. On Israel's Lebanese frontier, hit-and-run raids by Arab guerrillas have killed eight Israelis and wounded 30 in recent weeks, most of them civilians. Two weeks ago, in an effort to silence such attacks, Israeli jets and armor swept into Lebanon on a 34-hour punitive raid. The attack was condemned by the United Nations Security Council...

Crowds of Lebanese took to the roads, joining refugees still homeless after the Israeli reprisal raid of two weeks ago. Their exodus may prove a wise move, for Israel's anguished reaction makes it virtually certain that still stronger blows will be forthcoming in the days ahead...
...Mailer has been following and accepting the consequences of his own ideas, most notably those about the revitalizing effects of physical violence. Indeed, the main point that lunges out of former Campaign Manager Joe Flaherty's shrewdly conceived, vigorously written and entertaining account of Mailer's Visigothic raid into forum politics is the novelist's need to test his genius in constant confrontation. Many voters may have been fascinated by a man of Mailer's dark, risky imagination. But in the end, they didn't want their city to marry...
