...Pope" in a score of languages, pelting him with cologne-scented water from the Jordan-but the tough legionnaires treated it like an Israeli attack force. Swinging rifle butts and even olive branches snatched from waiting children, the soldiers tried to clear a path so the Pope could walk in prayer along the shabby, bazaar-littered Via Dolorosa, venerated as the street along which Jesus carried his cross to Calvary. The Pope twice stopped to meditate briefly at a station of the Cross and once slipped inside a convent for 25 minutes of rest and prayer, while outside, his security...
...Walk in the Park. What makes a good Red spy? In Georgiev's case it seems to have been Nikita Khrushchev's destalinization speech to the 20th Soviet Party Congress.

"There is no need to hide or fight." Peacefully, the four men surrendered their weapons...
...bustling pace of 20th century business often slows to a pleasant walk in Idaho. In the state's sylvan surroundings, many businessmen duck-hunt before work, water-ski after work, and fret less about growth charts than about the potato crop. It seems an unlikely setting for a modern, aggressive company. But that is just what Idaho has in the Boise Cascade Corp., which has grown in only six years into a major enterprise and a magnet for Eastern-trained executives...
