A light day. The usual staff meetings & a sum up on Marcos & his people who fled to Hawaii. We are appealing to Aquino to provide passports. She doesn’t want him in the Philippines, so it would serve her purposes to make it possible for him to travel throughout the world.

After lunch went over to the East Room with Sec. of Ed. Bill Bennett where some 200 school reps. & parents were on hand to receive the dept. of ed. effort, a booklet entitled “What Works.”

Congressman & Mrs. Larry Hopkins came by for a photo—it is their 30th anniversary.

A Cab. meeting to let George S. & Cap W. brief the Cabinet on international affairs & our defense situation.
