SIGN HERE: Pentagon Papers defendant Daniel Ellsberg made a visit to the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda last week en route to a re-enactment by Corona ninth-graders of his famous trial for exposing the government documents. Centennial High School language arts teacher Donna Glen said Ellsberg, now of Berkeley, arrived at the mock trial wearing a “Nixon’s the One” button. He had bought it at the library’s gift shop, where he also signed a copy of “Silent Coup,” a new Watergate book, for a clerk, who then invited him to an autograph-signing party at the library. Said Glen: “He kind of laughed at that.”
