...gavels the delegates to order. Ted Kennedy strides to the platform, and after a frenetic ten-minute ovation nominates Nelson Rockefeller for President. After an hour's floor demonstration, Allard Lowenstein, chairman of the New York delegation, moves that the delegates nominate Rockefeller by acclamation, and the delegates respond without a single dissenting vote...
Even the little triumphs were short-lived. Bolivia's stolid Indian peasantry, whom Che expected to join the revolution, did not respond: "The mass of peasants does not help us at all and has become informers." Che watched some of his most loyal followers fall in combat, get separated from others and cut off from supplies by the army's ever-tightening clamp. "This type of struggle gives us the opportunity not only to turn ourselves into revolutionaries, the highest level of the human species, but it also allows us to graduate as men," he wrote on Aug. 8, still...
Trudeau certainly ranks among the world's more interesting heads of government. Though of considerable intellect, he is a thoroughly unstuffy man who, when asked by a pretty young Trudeau-bopper for a kiss, can respond: "Why not? It's spring."

A serious political thinker with some unusual views of Canada's future, he has nonetheless answered hecklers with an impudent "so's your...
Truffaut solidified his reputation with two films that are still considered landmarks in modern cinema history. Shoot the Piano Player was both a sly, imitative tribute to the Warner Bros, shootem-ups of the '30s and the existential drama of a man (Charles Aznavour) who can no longer respond to life. Jules and Jim was a near-perfect evocation of Montparnassian fin de siecle life, informed with psychological observations of the '60s. A blend of saline tragedy and dulcet comedy, it reinforced the burgeoning reputation of Actress Jeanne Moreau...
Facing such Soviet intransigence, many Socialists, especially those near Brandt, would like to respond to Ulbricht's travel restrictions by some daring move, such as abolishing the need for visas for other East bloc visitors to West Germany, in order to illustrate how anachronistic Ulbricht's restrictions are. In today's relaxing Europe, they also favor diplomatic recognition of East Germany in hopes that even a slight reduction in tensions there might help to create a situation in which the 74-year-old Ulbricht's successor, or perhaps his successor's successor, might turn...
