VIfflAJII In far-off Viet Nam -- U.S. Marines supported by massive boaber strikes -- today uncovered a Connun1st base ca■p: hidden in the rain-soaked Jungle or the Phuoc Valley -- south or Da lang. The leather necks -- lping out aoae of Viet Cong· and •ptur1ng eight others -- as they trie 1 l to escape disguised as woaen. They also discovered a network of tunnels that contained twenty six tons of rice -- eleven tons of tea -- rifles -- and at least two Chinese •de artillery pieces. Thia part or a •Jor llarlne effort -- to track down an eatlated reglaent of guerr1lla c -- believed to be hldtng in the area. At last report -- 110re than a hundred and twentJ Co•uniats known dead -- 1n a continuing series of skirmishes •1th the Marines -- with hundreds aore believed killed -- and hurriedly buried by their comrades. U.S. officials nevertheless 1as1st1ng -- that the big fight 1s yet to come. SPACE The story from space -- pretty much the sa■e as when I left last week f or London. Round and round they continue to go -- Astronauts Borman and Lovell. Already holders of the space endurance record for two-man flight -- and closing fast on the individual all-time space endurance record ot fellow astronaut Gordon Cooper. Meanwhile, the condition or the craft -- described aa excellent. Conditir~ or the crew -- "chipper" we're told. In short -- all syste■s still "go" -- for man's 110st daring venture yet into the black void or space .. The only probJ·;■ -- it seeu, -- back at Cape KeMedy, where American space scientists are trying to ready the Oe■lni-Slx -- for another shot at that historic rendezvous in space.
