...commend you on your fine Essay on student protest [May 3]. In an age of uncertainty and doubt it is all too easy for students to latch on to a certain philosophy and use it as their panacea. Too often this philosophy becomes dogma, blinds its proponents to other viewpoints, and leads them to the all or nothing stage. It is then that the intellectual process breaks down, and a meaningful and productive interplay of ideas, which is so desperately needed now, ceases. I can only hope that both students and administrators will never be afraid to open themselves continually...

The one plane that Britten-Norman builds carries ten people in a fuselage that even its designers admit is "just an aluminum rack." It has a high, slablike wing and a top speed of only 168 m.p.h. Yet low and slow as it flies, the Britten-Norman (BN-2) Islander, as it is called, has proved to be a soaring success...

WKCR announces that a clergyman is wanted in Fayerweather; a couple wants to get married. This surprises me. Reverend Starr performs the ceremony and says "I pronounce you children of the new age." Shortly after we hear it, we see a candle-light procession approaching. The bride is carrying roses. She hands them to me and I pass them inside. The demonstration peaks for me as I touch the roses--I am stoned on revolutionary zeal. The newlyweds call themselves Mr. and Mrs. Fayerweather...
