Most of the guests, naturally, were French, though Belgium, Spain and West Germany sent contingents; the passenger list also included a smattering of Englishmen, Americans, and a Lebanese who flew from Beirut for the adventure. Instead of retiring to the solarium between meals-though the topless sun bathing rated two stars -most of the gourmets attended gastronomic "forums" where, often heatedly, they discussed such matters of faith as the correct temperature for serving champagne (46°-50° F. v. 50°-54° F.), whether smoking between courses dulls the palate (not at all, said Gault), and why there...

Some of the measures were hardly of earth-shattering importance. In Dade County, Fla., a ban on throwaway bottles and cans, favored by environmentalists, was rejected by the voters, while in nearby Cocoa Beach topless bathing was outlawed.
