...home in Cairo's Manshiet al Bakri district. As birds chirped in the garden, Nasser, tanned and looking fit, entered the room wearing a white sport shirt and brown slacks. He spoke readily in a soft voice and, when amused, broke into a boyish giggle and slapped his thigh. Typically, he was more restrained in private with foreign listeners than he is in public exhorting the Arab masses.

The man ran out of the dorm immediately after stabbing Minnie Liu '71 in the thigh with a knife. He reportedly came into the dorm "looking for girls," grabbed the girl on bells, who screamed and ran into the dining room; he followed her, and stabbed Miss Liu, who had her back to him. Miss Liu was taken to the University Health Services, and is reportedly in no danger. As of 1:30 a.m. this morning, Cambridge police...
