Workmen are still scrambling all over the swooping, tent-shaped roof of the vast Olympic swimming pool and the upward-spiraling conch-shell roof of the Olympic basketball court. A fleet of five truck-trailer, mobile public rest rooms is still under construction for the Olympic games area (nobody seemed to have included enough public toilets in the original building plans), and in the hope of stopping a practice that might offend foreign guests, posters are going up in the subways, pleading...

It's the first time we've been able to get a proper training area for the armored divisions for ten or twelve years now-where they will encounter...
...faith healer. While Dutch papers remained loyally silent, Bernhard leaked the story to the foreign press, and the resulting uproar brought the Queen and government into direct conflict. As a result, Greet Hofmans moved out of the palace and now lives in an old-fashioned wooden trailer on the estate of a Dutch banker...
