With the announcement that the New York Newspaper Guild and the Newspaper and Mail Deliverers' Union had reached agreement "in principle" with the publishers of the World Journal Tribune last week, New York's two-month-old newspaper strike seemed to have taken a long stride toward settlement. But there was many an acrimonious argument left to be resolved. And the Guild negotiators were obviously in no hurry to call a general meeting where Guildsmen would ratify the "package" that had been so laboriously worked...
...organization nominally behind the demonstrations is the National Coordinating Committee to End the War in Viet Nam. A two-month-old shoe string operation headquartered near the University of Wisconsin at Madison, it produces a newsletter and claims a steering committee of 45 members who represent local end-the-war groups.

But last week, after the seclusion imposed upon her by the Secret Service, she became radiant over the opportunity to attend a midnight Christmas Mass and to enjoy a glittering tree surrounded by donated gifts. Inside the 20 large boxes were clothes and toys, including 15 dolls for two-year-old June and two-month-old Rachel. Marina visited with her brother...
...hate to think about those first months," recalls Cadman. "I just about went crazy with boredom." Only the excitement of the Christmas and Carnaval celebrations kept him from quitting the Corps during that period. Volunteers all over the interior began withdrawing from village life and retiring to the houses provided for them by the CVSF. One volunteer said she was so bored she found herself reading the same two-month-old copy of TIME Magazine three times through. Progress in speaking Portuguese came to a dead stop.
