A fragment from the Lubbock Avalanche Journal notes morning rite events and advertising by Terese 4 Press and United Prev, with mention of CHAS. 4. GUT Ralior and Publisher in the building listing.
A successful attack on Phnom Penh prompts questions about protecting air power and coordinating American and Cambodian forces. The piece considers lessons from wartime airfields, U S policy debates with Congress, and the balance between security needs and public transparency about Cambodia operations.
The article argues Senator George McGovern lacks broad appeal for the 1972 Democratic nomination. It notes his low poll standing, limited dissident base, questionable foreign and domestic stances, and a likely path only toward a vice presidential bid or peace advocacy, framing his run as inadequate for real leadership.
Henry J. Taylor reports that Soviet author Andrei Amalrik, 31, famed for views on the creative intelligentsia, has been condemned by a Sverdlovsk court to a three year labor camp under a socially detrimental element classification. The move underscores the harsh limits on dissent in early Communist Russia.
A Las Vegas betting man dismisses Senator Muskie as a front runner for 1972, likening Kosygin talks to a dog race and warning that political figures face risky turns. The piece also profiles the exile of Soviet reformist writer Anatoly Amalrik, his arrest, trial, and the fate of his wife Gyuzel.
The article argues Kennedy was rightly ousted as assistant Democratic leader after a string of self serving moves and poor judgement including the North Vietnam prisoner list. It notes Byrd’s rise as whip, cites Chappaquiddick and Mary Jo Kopechne as factors, and questions Kennedy’s staying power despite media appeal.
Senator Muskie after visiting Israel Egypt the Soviet Union and West Germany says his views on U S troop withdrawal from Europe have shifted and that state department briefings show why the Mansfield plan is impractical He warns against abandoning Western Europe as NATO allies and stresses the need for credible U S policy and balanced force reductions.
Lubbock Morning Avalanche files capture a fragmentary note from January 28 1951 referencing Harold E Stassen and Kilmer B Corbin with unclear context involving Kremlin maneuvers and the Iron Curtain. The garbled text mentions a person from Austin and a so called current serson of the soit artist.
Marianne Means profiles Birch Bayh, Indiana senator aiming for national prominence. The piece notes his blunt approach to campaign strategy, recent moves including a 500000 dollar budget, new headquarters and staff, and plans to press issues on youth, equal rights, ethics reform, and expanded health care while avoiding early lockups by Muskie. Bayh positions himself left of Muskie and right of McGovern, with Kennedy ties boosting hopes.
A mash of brash anecdotes and curious notes spans Cripple Creek history, a Meyers Avenue renaming to Julian Street, jokes about aging hair and Abe Martin, moon soil as fertilizer for lettuce, a WWII Rhine crossing smoke screen, Smokey Bear chats, and a stuttering Q and A about tea spoon drops.
