Film Censor OKs Zeffirelli Romeo Juliet at Royal Film Event
London reports that Britain's film censor approved Franco Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet for the Royal Film Performance despite a nude scene. Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip will attend a charity screening Monday. Olivia Hussey stars as Juliet at age 15. In Phnom Penh, Sihanouk warned he would resign if Cambodian rebels do not suspend their insurgency, hinting at Lon Nol as successor. In New York, an arbitrator boosted sanitation workers' pay by 425 dollars a year in a 15 month contract, with Lindsay and union leaders disputing the annualized figure. Also in New York, the Grammy Awards honored Up Up and Away and other artists, while in Budapest a bloc-wide rebellion emerges as Romania faults Kremlin tactics and walks out of the party meeting.
