Corruption Versus Communism in Vietnam
Jack Anderson argues in Saigon that corruption may defeat South Vietnam as much as communism. He notes $30 billion in US aid feeding Viet Cong supply chains via South Vietnamese racketeers and urges pacification to rebuild governance. Gardiner supports withdrawal to avoid a prolonged land war and reduce American casualties while stressing need for a fresh approach to counter Hanoi.

Snow Prediction Recalls Dad's Weather Lore
A nostalgic poem recalls a father predicting snow and guiding chores before winter fun. The piece sits alongside news about Wendell M. Patton leading a European education tour and town notices on pedestrian safety and Willard Kimrey's retirement and planned Greensboro agricultural building.
Challenge to Educate Who Pays for the Colleges
The piece contrasts California’s fiscal brakes on higher education with New York’s expansion. California relies on a large share of its budget for education but aims to curb costly minority student programs, while New York pursues a robust multicampus system under Governor Rockefeller. It argues education and morality shape free government and demand solid investment.

Hanoi's stance mirrors a harsh view of captured U S pilots as war criminals, with no neutral inspection of camps. Three pilots released in February describe weary relief and reunification with families.
