...with the Soviets. Democratic Senator Henry Jackson, for example, said he was concerned "about what I have seen and heard of Mr. Warnke's position," while Democratic Senator Sam Nunn complained that Warnke has opposed many of those U.S. weapons systems (e.g., MIRVed missiles and the nuclear-armed Trident submarine) that have given the Soviets the incentive to come to the negotiating table...
...terrific performance by Tyner. The release, cut this summer, but just now making it to the shelves at the Coop, is devoid of the heavy string section that made "Fly With the Wind" such a hit. This record is much more on line with the pulsating sounds of Trident. The most popular cut, at least for the disc jockeys, has been "indo Serenade," with its clearly defined melody and beautiful romantic piano work by Tyner. But the other numbers, including "Mes Trois Fils" and "Mode for Dulcimer," offer more in terms of improvisational beauty. This album is saxophone heavy which...

But the area around Zagreb-a key sky junction of routes to Turkey, Greece and Mediterranean resorts-is one of Europe's busiest air corridors, and the Yugoslav pilot was unaware that the British Trident was already flying at that altitude. Zagreb's air controllers may well be responsible for this fatal error. The preliminary opinion of Vjeceslav Jakovac, the Yugoslav judge heading the investigation, was that the controllers probably had incorrectly assessed the altitude of the planes. Five of the controllers were taken into custody...
