- DASHING DAN. CBS newsman Morley Safer's forthcoming book on
- Vietnam depicts a bizarre encounter with anchorman Dan Rather.
- According to Safer, Rather showed up at a Saigon bar dressed in
- fatigues and packing a .38-cal. revolver. He mystified his
- colleague by darkly intoning the Latin words for "don't let the
- bastards get you down." Rather denies ever carrying a gun and
- says he cannot recall the conversation.
