Nixon Golf Round and Global Spotlight in One Day
President Nixon briefed 400 to 500 sub cabinet officials at the State Department on his economic program and then played a round of golf with Secretary William P. Rogers at Burning Tree Club in Maryland. Richard Burton was announced to play Trotsky in The Assassination of Trotsky filmed in Mexico, and Tito in a World War II Yugoslav liberation project. In Baltimore Tiny Tim helped beautify downtown by planting myrtle trees with mayoral aide William Donald Schaefer, as rush hour traffic sparked a three-car rear-end crash near the ceremony.

43 000 Draftees May Be Sent Home Early
The Army plans early discharge of up to 43 000 draftees assigned to U S posts as a first step toward a 50 000 man average strength cut for fiscal 1972. Pentagon sources say more personnel losses, raised re enlistment standards, or fewer inductions may follow if Congress enacts the reduction.
