UPI Reporters Reprimanded by Soviet Officials Over Disrespect Claim
In Moscow the Soviet Foreign Ministry summoned New York Times reporter Craig Whitney and Baltimore Sun reporter Harold Piper and warned them for allegedly disrespecting the Moscow City Court during a libel case against Soviet television officials.
