...nation's fresh-fish markets last week braced for trouble. The U.S. consumes approximately 1.47 million lbs. of fresh fish daily, including Pacific Coast salmon, Maine lobster and Florida red snapper. Most of this must get to market in no more than a few days after it is caught, to help guard against spoilage. The Landlock Seafood Co. of Dallas has sold about $6 million worth of fresh fish this year to 175 different hotels, restaurants and supermarkets in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Company President Richard Polins says that he may soon start bringing fish overland from Boston...
...away: Actor Omar Sharif, who would contribute to an Egyptian "ethos," has decided not to fly in from London, and Senator Ted Stevens is staying put in Alaska. There is some question about the roses, which are to arrive by air from New York. But the yellow, white and salmon hybrids make it.

Angus Henry, 25, a freelance caterer, and Gwyn Jenkins, 25, an interior designer, set up hard by Buckingham Palace with a television, three cases of sparkling white wine, masses of duck pate, a crate of salmon sandwiches, French bread, orange juice and a large black umbrella. They threw a party right there for 50 friends, and on the wedding morning Angus changed into a morning suit. All along the wedding route, spectators wrapped themselves in flags and youths painted the Union Jack on their faces. Others...
...recent series of setbacks to U.S.-Japanese relations. In April the U.S. nuclear submarine George Washington collided with and sank the Japanese freighter Nissho Mam, killing two Japanese crewmen-and then left the scene. In May, during joint U.S.Japanese naval exercises, U.S. vessels were blamed for cutting expensive salmon-fishing lines. Last week it appeared that Japanese ships or shadowing Soviet vessels might have been responsible, but the exercises had already been suspended. Finally, Suzuki's apparently successful visit to Washington in May turned into an embarrassment after a joint communique referred for the first time...
