The spokesman Maj.-Gen. Daniel James, was questioned at a
press briefing yesterday about speculation on a major Communist of-
fensive.
"We don't have cause to think that a major offensive has been
launched or is about to begin," General James said.
He said there continued to be ceasefire violations, "far more than
we like." But he added: "We haven't seen anything today that would
give us more cause for alarm than yesterday:"
The International Commission for Control and Supervision of the
Vietnam ceasefire moved yesterday to break the deadlock between
the Viet Cong and government forces over fighting at a ranger outpost
near Saigon which has threatened a total breakdown in administering
the truce.
Both sides have agreed to provide liaison officers for an l.C.C.S.
team due to investigate -the fighting at the Tong Le Chan ranger camp,
but the Viet Cong insist that the opposing field commanders should
meet first.
A South Vietnamese government spokesman reported Wednesday
that more than 100 rangers had been killed or wounded in the five
weeks of fighting round the base.
Fighting has intensified throughout the country over the past two
days, with South Vietnamese forces suffering heavy casualties in two
battles.

"If you have been withholding your patronage from
black movies, and you want to see the best sample
around right now, try 'Super Fly'."
-Andrew Sarris, Village Voice .
"The one recent black movie that has any original
distinction as a film is Gordon Parks Jr.'s 'Super
Fly.' Its story of a successful addict-pusher who
attempts to get out of the game is tough, unsenti-
mental melodrama of the superior sort that recog-
nizes fate in circumstance, and circumstance in
character. Priest (Ron O'Neal), the pusher is a man
with style in a world where style is everything."
