Knock on Wood. As if bent on self-destruction, man has made his water and air poisonous. Highways, airways and commuter railways have become choked to the suffocation point. The problems of the present may be deferrable, those of the future soluble. But by whom? Americans have traditionally sacrificed to educate their young and believed in the next generation's competence to settle a troubled world. Today that assumption is widely questioned. Education in its Latin origin means to bring up, but on American campuses recently, extremists have often made the process seem more like a bringing down...
...answer is "mutuality." Under this approach, the negotiators in Paris would work out a reciprocal and, if possible, concurrent withdrawal plan satisfactory to North Viet Nam and the U.S. alike. The Administration is banking-perhaps too optimistically-on Hanoi's having a growing desire for peace.

Last week in the central-Greece village of Megalo Kalivia, 40 peasants were hurt and two score more arrested in a pitchfork battle with police. The battle flared over a strip of ground that the peasants have always used for sheep grazing. Those new eaters in Athens want to erect...
...free speech. CBS says that Tommy and Dick broke their contract. ABC and NBC say no comment. Dick says ask Tommy. The one sure thing is that the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour - since 1967 one of TV's few sources of new ideas and sparkle -is off the air for this season and next...
