Iraq has also become a sanctuary for Palestinian rejectionists who believe that Arafat's stance toward Israel is too moderate. The principal fedayeen rebel is Sabry Khalil Bana, 40, whose code name Abu Nidal means Father of the Struggle; he heads a dissident Palestinian group known as Black June, after the month in 1976 when Syrian forces invaded Lebanon and fought the Palestinians. Abu Nidal, whose terrorist credentials include a 1973 attack on a Pan Am jet at Rome's Fiumicino Airport in which 34 people died, is under a P.L.O. death sentence for disobeying orders. Last week...
...Czech girls sported distinctive red and white jumpers; the Poles, whose national colors the Czechs had appropriated, came decked out in red and khaki. There was color (and congestion) aplenty in Havana last week, as some 18,500 young leftists from 140 countries, attended by 1,500 journalists and 13,000 other visitors, crammed into the Cuban capital for the eleventh World Festival of Youth and Students.

Though most New Yorkers' initial reaction was that the law is probably unenforceable, retailers reported brisk sales of sanitary devices ranging from 15? disposable cardboard shovels to $11 long-handled pooper scoopers equipped with a flashlight for nocturnal emitters. One apartment complex unveiled a canine comfort station, whose white-tiled premises were dutifully christened by Toto (né Megs), Dorothy's dog in the Broadway musical The Wiz. On the first day of the law, only 22 litter tickets were issued; yet to close observers of sidewalks and parks, there was a marked diminution in dog litter...
...Ocean City, N.J., beach like a couple of locals. Joining them at the surfside home of Caroline's maternal grandma, Margaret Kelly, was Princess Grace. Instead of a little Saturday night fever at a neighborhood disco, Caroline and Philippe opted for a Gay Jitterbug. The horse, that is, whose jockey, Steve Cauthen, was presented the winner's cup by the newlyweds at the nearby Atlantic City race track...
