  It's on that page in the 2nd edition (1982) and I stand corrected and
apologize for my bad information. The various editions of the Wirth book have
such good indexes and tables of contents, with such coherent organization that
I don't know how I missed this.  I still would not depend on VAL for an
instant however.
  If someone who has the 1st edition could look this up it would be useful 
(to complete my embarrassment if nothing else).
