The big excitement in Southeast Asia has been U.S. retaliation against the North Vietnamese torpedo-boat bases.

Here The Post examines the Viet- cong and tells why this enemy, outnumbered and Ill-equipped, continues to win.

An infinity of mirrors . . . Richard Condon. Full page color illustration.
The house on the corner . . . John O'Hara. Full page color illustration by Neil Boyle.

THE AUTHORS. For Far Eastern correspondent Stanley Karnow, the story of the Vietcong guerrillas is his third majorarticle on Vietnam to appear in The Post within the past year . . . . While covering the elimination races for the America's Cup, contributing writer Lewis H. Lapham got soaked to the skin the first day, suffered a mild case of sunstroke the second and became seasick the third, but now he counts himself a seasoned sailor. . . - Richard Armstrong spent a month traveling 2,500 miles through tragic Appalachia to get a closer look at how poverty has taken over a once great industrial area of the country. - . . Frank C. Tolbert, who reports on the fate of the widow of slain policeman J. D. Tippit, is a columnist for the Dallas News and has had several books published, among them Day of San Jacinto and An In formal History of Texas. . . . Seeing his political dreams evaporate after he lost the Republican presidential nomination (see The Post, July 11-18), writer Marvin Kitman has decided to try his hand at becoming a big-time capitalist. . . . On a visit to the set of Good-bye, Charlie, Debbie Reynolds' latest film, contributing writer Richard Warren Lewis was mistaken for an extra in a party scene and had to talk his way out of a minor role in the movie.
