...tribute. But the American public was obviously in no mood to celebrate. Peace had been promised so often that even now some people were not sure that it had really come, or would last. Others had been so emotionally numbed by the war that they found it hard to react at all. There would be no heroic memories to cherish?no Valley Forge, no San Juan Hill. And not many heroes either. As the nation last week observed the funeral of former President Lyndon Johnson (see page 29), it heard lavish eulogies of his domestic initiatives, but there was only...
...peace. That'll never happen." The big question is whether the British plan will be so unacceptable to Protestant militants, such as the Ulster Defense Association, that they will surge into the streets for a showdown with British authority -and, if that happens, how British forces will react to the challenge. The U.D.A., which claims a membership of 54,000 and has a growing arsenal of weapons, could pose a bigger threat than the I.R.A...
Roach Brown insists that his play about how various prisoners react to Christmas is all too accurate. Indeed, after every trip outside, it has taken all his strength to readjust to prison.

On Saturday the Quakers pulled even at 39 all with their zone after two minutes of play in the second half...
...biggest gainers are expected to be cyclical issues, the stocks that react most directly to swings in the economy. For example, the projected spending burst for capital improvements should burnish the allure of heavy equipment and machine-tool issues. Business inventory accumulation, which is just now beginning in earnest, should brighten prospects for copper, aluminum, steel, chemical and paper stocks. Among the categories expected to lag in 1973 are food stocks, which analysts believe are already fully valued, still-limping aerospace stocks and many speculative issues. For a broad range of stocks, however, 1973 is shaping up as a gilt...
