Among the measures: the transfer of U.S. aircraft to Korea from other Pacific bases; the shift of Navy tracker planes for reconnaissance and antisubmarine patrols; and the accelerated development of defense industries in South Korea. The U.S. also reaffirmed a commitment to "render prompt and effective assistance" in the event of attack...
...height of World War I, air aces dogfight across European skies. In a startling revelation, the Red Baron's nemesis is shown to be a Major Larrabee (Rock Hudson), not Charles Schulz's Snoopy. No need to worry. Hudson's canine grin and acting prowess render him a close second to the vincible puppy. All that is missing is Linus, Lucy, Schroeder & Co.

...Both sides' land-based missiles would then be vulnerable. In that event. Harvard Professor George Kistiakowsky suggests, the superpowers might agree to abandon land sites altogether in favor of submarine-borne warheads.

"I know it sounds shocking to say that we must deny ourselves the means of locating enemy subs," he says, "but if we insist on those means the Russians will...

He abhors sostenuto music, prefers staccato, the breaks of breath, which render every particle of every line crystalline. He does not admit superfluous notes, dynamic nourishes, believing that "gratuitous excess spoils every substance, every form that it touches." He is most traditional, and most original, in his use of severely-delineated polyphony, rhythm, text, and articulation. Stravinsky has always demanded austere linear counterpoint...
...black community is getting more uptight. And it is prone to answer violence. But I don't see a full-scale civil war in the sense of two clearly defined groups opposing each other violently. I think the black group is so small is so small that it would render itself almost impotent. I just don't think we could carry...
