Paragon of Equine Poetry At Cedar Rapids Playgrounds

This week Cedar Rapids hosts the sixth summer playgrounds festival with circus themed activities. Daily contests and events include balancing bikers, longest and shortest feet, nature hikes, costume and limbo contests, scavenger hunts, bike decorating, bubble blowing, and water melon eating.

Yugoslavia Expands Its Arms Industry With Modern Demos

Belgrade reports show Yugoslavia pushing toward self reliance in weapons following the 1968 Prague invasion and 1973 war. Tito praised stimulating science and institutes to build ultra modern gear, with a parade featuring the Eagle fighter co produced with Romania. New items include a automatic 32 barrel rocket launcher, mini submarines, a light armored carrier with anti-tank missiles and bio chemical protection. Defense spending this year is set at half of the federal budget.
