...idea was suggested by Jesse Birnbaum, our San Francisco bureau chief since last January after 18 years as a writer and senior editor in New York. Traveling west with an Easterner's (Passaic, N.J.) eye. Birnbaum was immediately struck by "how much of the California legend was true-the climate, the geography, the hordes of new Californians shucking off old ways and values and experimenting with the new"-sometimes compulsively, sometimes casually. "The more I got to know San Francisco, the more intrigued I became with its life style, its easy atmosphere, the narcissism of the city...
...general discussion of California and its impact was written by Birnbaum, who filed voluminously along with other correspondents and then returned to New York with pen in hand once again.

In New York, U.S. officials filed charges of air piracy, kidnaping and other offenses that carry penalties from 20 years' imprisonment to death. At his Marine Corps court-martial, Minichiello faced a maximum sentence of only six months in the brig without pay and a bad-conduct discharge...

Rocky's report, to be released soon, was described in Washington as considerably more far-reaching than Nixon's guidelines. During his tour, the Governor was told that Latin Americans are unhappy not only with the slow pace of development but also with the often domineering, paternalistic attitudes and policies...
