Lloyd Bentsen is almost everything Bill Clinton is not. He is a multimillionaire, languid and almost aloof, calm and not intensely driven. He got his political start proclaiming his record as a decorated bomber pilot. Even their respective morning running routines reflect the basic symbolic difference between them. The President-elect jogs on the streets. The Secretary of the Treasury-designate stays indoors, on a treadmill.

Other businesses just go bankrupt or close down, but journalists like to say that newspapers die when they cease publication. At The San Antonio Light, which executives have said will either be closed or sold this month, all the anger and sadness of mourning have found expression in a custom as old as the Aztecs. Amid the drab cubicles and computer terminals of The Light's newsroom there is something that looks at first glance like a pile of litter. Wilted flowers, photographs, scraps of paper and odd trinkets, like a tiny football helmet, are heaped on two desks. Blinking Christmas lights have been strung haphazardly along with some garish plastic garlands.

For a military establishment acutely conscious of its vulnerability to post-cold-war budget cutters, the landing at Mogadishu was the ultimate photo opportunity. But having finally secured an elusive spotlight, the marines discovered that they had too much of a good thing. As Navy Seals and Marine reconnaissance teams came shore under the glare of television lights, the spotlights and flash attachments gave away their positions, interfered with their sophisticated night-vision equipment and gave night blindness to commandos who wanted to have their eyes fully adjusted to darkness in case they were attacked from the dunes and scrub.

As the first French troops arrived in Somalia to join the United States-led relief mission there, French politicians sharply criticized the televised landing of American marines near Mogadishu early today as a media event and "charity show." French newspapers also said the decision to send 2,100 French troops to Somalia had divided the French Cabinet, with the Defense Minister, Pierre Joxe, opposing the move and President Francois Mitterrand finally coming down on the side of Bernard Kouchner, the Health and Humanitarian Affairs Minister.

Conservative members of Parliament, newspaper editorialists and even avid royalists voiced skepticism today that the Prince and Princess of Wales would be able to fulfill their intended future roles as King and Queen now that they have separated as husband and wife. One day after Britain was stunned by the announcement that the royal couple intended to break up but not to divorce, the Government's insistence that the arrangement would not impair the monarchy or the succession to the throne appeared to do little to quiet doubters.
