SINO-SOVIET MILITARY RELATIONS
Edited by Raymond L. Garthoff
By 1966, Sino-Soviet relations had
reached a point where scarcely an eye-
brow was raised when China boycotted
the Moscow-sponsored International Com-
munist Party Congress. In Peking, govern-
ment spokesmen were warning that the
present Soviet leaders would be "swept
like dust from the stage of history by the
mighty broom of the revolutionary peo-
ple."
To explore the military and politico-
military considerations in the Moscow-
Peking dispute, the editor has brought
together essays by outstanding govern-
ment, military, and academic specialists
on Soviet, Chinese, and military affairs.
What does the present political discord
mean in military terms? Covering the
entire period since the Chinese and Rus-
sian revolution-with particular emphasis
on the decade and a half since Com-
munist rule was firmly established in
China—they seek to clarify the reasons
why early cooperation between the Soviet
Union and China has given way to to-
day's virulent antagonism.
Civic Group Plans
Fund-Raising Show
Roberta, specialty actress with the
Ken Griffin Show, says, "There is never
a dull moment in my job." Nightly during
the performance she is decapitated, hyp-
notized, floated in thin air, subjected to
the searing flames of burning torches,
pierced with swords and made to vanish
into the unknown. All this is in addition
to her own specialty acts; but it is all
in fun and she emerges smiling from each
ordeal.
Roberta, who has
appeared on the
screen, televi-
sion, and on the
legitimate stage
where she starred
in such Broadway
hits as "Bell Book
and Candle," "Lo
and Behold," and
"Ladies In Re-
tirement," finds
her present acti-
vities quite dif-
ferent from her
former straight
acting career.
The performance, a two hour variety,
mystery revue, also features Ken Grif-
fin, presenting several outstanding tele-
vision acts as well as comedy, audience
participation, and novelty acts.
The TV Thrill-Drama Show is spon-
sored by a local civic organization as a
fund-raising program for the community
youth program. It will be presented at
the Mineral Wells Convention Hall on
March 25.
THE STRUGGLE FOR INDOCHINA
1940-1955
By Ellen J. Hammer
"The people of southern Vietnam can
be neither bribed nor intimidated to join
forces with the West against the Com-
munists, but they certainly would do so if
they were permitted, through the achieve-
ment of political unity in conditions of
freedom, to enjoy the liberties which they
cannot have under communism. It would
be well not to underestimate the ability
of the Vietnamese to govern himself and
to fight for what he believes in—if he
is given something in which to believe by
his own independent leaders." There are
the final prophetic words in THE STRUG-
GLE FOR INDOCHINA CONTINUES, pub-
lished in 1955.
Among the topics covered are the
French conquest and colonial rule, the
impact of the Japanese occupation, the
rise of the Viet Minh, Ho Chi Minh's
role in Vietnamese politics, the roles of
Nationalist and Communist China, and the
Geneva Conference of 1954.
PEACE AND WAR
By Raymond Aron
The author's method consists of a
four-pronged approach to the vast maze
of fact, theory and conjecture familiarly
known as the "science" of international
relations. Dividing his analysis into
theory, "Sociology," '^history," and
"praxiology," representing four overlap-
ping levels of conceptualization, Aron
explores in depth the way nations behave
toward each other, with emphasis on the
present-day global situation. He is inter-
ested not only in theoretical formula-
tions but also in the social and material
causes of diplomatic and military action,
and perhaps most important, in the moral
perspectives confronting mankind in the
nuclear age. Contrary to the fashionable
opinion that the use of force had become
obsolete as a method of solving dis-
agreements, Aron contends that the de-
structiveness of nuclear weapons is no
logical guarantee that they will never again
be used.
THE CAMPAIGNS OF NAPOLEON
By David Chandler
This is an exhaustive analysis and
critique of Napoleon's art of war as he
himself developed and perfected it in the
major military campaigns of his career,.
Napoleon disavowed any suggestion that he
worked from formula, but military his-
torian David Chandler demonstrates this
was at best only a half-truth. To be sure,
every operation Napoleon conducted con-
tained unique improvisatory features. But
there were from the first to the last
certain basic principles of strategic man-
euver and battlefield planning that he al-
most invariably put into practice. To
clarify these underlying methods, the
author examines in detail each campaign
mounted and personally conducted by Na-
poleon, analyzing the strategies employed,
revealing wherever possible the probable
sources of his subject's military ideas.

Cast At Lee Jr. High
To Present Musical
Comedy on March 30
Lee Junior High School will present
a hilarious musical comedy entitled "The
Belle of the West," Thursday evening,
March 30, at 7;30 p.m. in the school
auditorium.
This program, under the direction of
John Martinez, band director, is being
presented as the annual PTA fund-raising
project. Money from this program will be
used to air condition the Band Hall at Lee.
The scene for the play is Roaring
Creek, Idaho, and action really flies when
Speedy Sam, local hotel owner, advertises
for a hotel manager and part-time barber.
A string of rip-roaring, fast-moving
events take place when the barber, I. M.
Brown, turns out to be a beautiful girl
and every man in town develops an over-
whelming desire to be manicured and
trimmed.
The cast is filled with glamour girls,
a singing chorus, and all the zing of the
wild west. The cast of characters along
with Speedy Summers includes Handsome
Harry, Sure-Shot Sam, Cussin' Cal,
Colorado Carry, Klondike Kittie, Seattle
Sue, Laramie Lou, and others.
The PTA urges all Fort Wolters per-
sonnel, especially those with children
at Lee to come out and enjoy a relax-
ing evening and, at the same time, help
support your childrens' school project.
Tickets will be on sale at the door and
will also be sold next week by the students.
Admission will be $1 for adults and 25
cents for children.
