The valley fight left Vietnamese and U.S. casualties and weapons damage, while air power aided a tied-up defense as helicopters evacuated the wounded.

Goldwater Ready To Speak On GOP Struggle Splits
New York AP Barry Goldwater prepared to tell a Republican summit that leadership strife is tearing the party apart. He planned to discuss with Dwight Eisenhower and Richard Nixon the intra party battle between conservative and moderate wings. GOP chairman Dean Burch downplayed an agenda and a Chicago meeting of the RNC to decide his fate was set for January 22-23.
