NATION GENERAL WATERS NAMED UN. HEAD DELEGATE General Vernon A. Waters was appointed to the post of Head Delegate to the United Nations to replace Jean Kirkpatrick. Waters, 68, spent 44 years in the military, often in a cloud of secrecy. He is fluent o o in seven languages and was involved in the secret Paris talks to end the Vietnam war. He was often used as a “trouble-shooter" in his military post. It is expected the U.S. stance in the U.N., one against leftist governments and Soviet third world expansionism should remain the same.
