1. OTE has begun a series of brown-baa analytic training sessions
25X1 for analysts at Headquarters. of Analysis Training Branch
is planning and directing the series and led the first session on
5 February, "Are You Asking the Right Questions?" Nineteen people from
the DI and the DO, from Intelligence Assistants to branch chiefs, turned
out for the class. They liked the idea of using the luncheon forum to
discuss analytic issues and techniques. The next session, "Gut Feelings
and Pa er Trails," will be held on 12 February in Room 1D35 Headquarters.

2. Erich Bloch, Director of the National Science Foundation, will
speak on "SU in the Year 2000: Key Issues and Implications for
Strategic Intelligence" in the Headquarters Auditorium at 0930 on 3 March.
This is the first in a new lecture series being conducted for Agency
employees by OTE's SU Institute. The next speaker, in May, will be Noel
Hinners, NASA's Deputy Administrator and Senior Scientist.
3. The second running of the Workshop on Reviewing Analytical
25X1 Papers (RAP) took place on 3-4 February, again with as the
course director. The 16 students included senior analysts, editors,
branch chiefs, and division chiefs. They rated the course an overall 4.4
on a 5-point scale (compared to 4.3 in the first running). Eight
students gave the course an overall 5, seven a 4, and one a 3. The next
25X1 running will be in late April.
4. On 3 February, 15 students completed the second running of TIB's
two-and-one-half-day Introduction to Military Analysis Course (IMAC).
The students said the course met most of their training objectives. The
class included 12 analysts from the DI, two reports officers from the DO,
and one State Department officer--the vanguard of the INR contingent that
OTE has agreed to train. Based on student and staff evaluations, we
propose no more major changes in the course, but we are considering
changing its name to Introduction to Military Forces, a title that would
25X1 raise more appropriate expectations of this knowledge course.

5. Professor Donald Zagoria of Hunter College discussed "The
Sino-Soviet Dispute" in the Soviet Foreign Policy Block on 8 February.
He traced relations from alliance in the 1950s, to confrontation by the
1960s, to currently a form of detente marked by a more normal
state-to-state relationship that Zagoria anticipates will persist. The
crucial issue is China's basic orientation, expected to continue to be
favorable to the West with encouragement from the U.S. and Japan. China
seems convinced that the West poses less of a security threat than the
Soviet Union and offers reater advantages in trade, credits, and
25X1 technology access.

Dean, Department of Cry tolo ic Management, National
Cryptologic School; division chief; and
course manager or NSA's CY 500 and CY 600
courses. We discussed the content and administration of the

cordial and frank. It was 'clear that we have many of the same
problems endemic to training operations and this session helped
to confirm both our intent to provide the NSA groups with a
schedule that meets their needs and our desire to continue
hosting these sessions.
Bill Baker, Director of Public Affairs, hosted the
Brookings luncheon on 5 February 1988. The group, as usual,
was kindly disposed toward the Agency and its operations which
made for a frank and cordial question and answer session
following the briefing.
On 9 February 1988, eighteen members of the USIA junior

emphasizing particularly our overseas responsibilities. The
class was in the third week of a nine week orientation program

1. An exceptionally outstanding running of Managing in CIA was held
1-3 February for 20 GS-10 and under supervisors. The overall course
evaluation of 4.85 was among the highest ever received and the oral and
written comments of the students indicated they received some fundamental
learnings about management from the program. In part this was due to the
contribution of Manager-in Residence Chief of the Operational
Support Group in IMS. More than any other manager who has sat in on Managing
so far, had a feel for the classroom and was able to establish a
natural rapport with students. Another contributing factor was the
outstanding job done by as course chairman and
