...finish the race on our feet, men," mumbled the New York Daily News's Frank Holeman. nodding sleepy-eyed over a glass of white Georgian wine in Sverdlovsk's Grand Urals Hotel. His sentiment was shared by all of the 73 U.S. newsmen accompanying the most tireless tourist ever to visit Russia: Vice President Richard Nixon. "[The other] tourists encountered along the way are regarded by now rather enviously as a happy, carefree lot," cabled the Washington Star's European Correspondent Crosby Noyes. "For them there are, presumably, no pre-dawn departures, no missed meals, no ghostly...
...week long, as Baghdad celebrated the Iraq Republic's first anniversary, taut, tireless Premier Karim Kassem was man of the hour 24 hours a day, taking salutes at parades, laying cornerstones, playing host at enormous public receptions, receiving scores of delegations.

Yet the eyes were not on him. All heads turned toward the other three men-two Americans and a Russian-struggling against time and tortured bodies to win honor and points for their countries-three for second place, two for third, one for finishing...

The West, he conceded, does have the victor's right to maintain occupation forces in Berlin, and the Soviet price for a Berlin settlement no longer requires Western recognition of Communist East Germany. Then came the old stall: Russia would not discuss the question of access until the Western powers agreed that Berlin become a "free city," i.e., until they renounced their occupation rights. And there matters stopped-approximately where they...
