Happy Birthday Nancy! A morning phone call from John P. The V.P. cand. on the Marcos election is holed up in a Manila hotel surrounded by several thousand of his demonstrators. Had himself sworn in as acting Pres. of Philippines per orders of Marcos. Acquino is on Mindanao 500 miles away. Dont feel civil war will result. Army remains loyal to Acquino. Nothing for us to get involved in.
Quiet day—then to the Wicks for dinner. Just the 4 of us I think. Still waiting for news on Nakasone & the Japanese election. Dinner tuned out to be at the Jockey Club. We slipped out of the W.H.—no flags or police escort or press. It was nice for a change.
