...Laos and Cambodia. They are willing to negotiate a prisoner exchange. Both say that the entire political spectrum of South Viet Nam must be eligible for representation in its government. The U.S. insisted for years that the National Liberation Front be excluded, but Washington has since surrendered that position. Use of an international supervisory group to help carry out peace terms is recommended by both sides, for different purposes. Hanoi still proposes the reunification of North and South, less adamantly than it used to, and the U.S. now accepts the possibility-although the means to bring that about remain vague...
...alchemy was simple. The first ingredient was a dusty, three-acre tract in a dowdy neighborhood just off grim Telegraph Avenue. The university acquired the site two years ago, and planned to use it for a recreation area restricted to university people. The $1,000,000 plot became a vacant eyesore when the university cleared it of buildings a year ago. Last month some of Berkeley's "street people"-an amorphous assemblage of hippies, yippies, students and others falling into no classification-took over the plot.

General Motors replied that accidents are not part of the normal and foreseeable use of the car. Judge John Fullam found that defense too narrow. While automakers cannot be required to build a "crashproof" car, he said, "passengers must be provided with a reasonably safe container within which to make the journey...
...paper tries to "get people emotionally disturbed rather than present facts." Sheriff Paul Bright, who has been assailed by the Observer for efforts to close such movies as I, a Woman and Candy, vainly sought a warrant to arrest Day when the paper published some four-letter words used by S.D.S. Founder Tom Hayden at the University of Idaho, even though the speech was also televised. The prosecuting attorney ruled that the one incident showed no pattern of obscenity but warned that Day should not use such words again. Day, naturally, makes no such promise. "We don't mind...
