Over the years, this system has shown an amazing durability, if not too much dynamism. Nine councilors get elected-almost always four from the "good government" Cambridge Civic Association (CCA) and five "independents." Together they apportion the City's bounty to their respective constituents try to keep the tax rate as low as possible, and sometimes, as from 1965 to 1968, break up in bitter fights over the choice of a city manager...
...university ties, however, came late in life, and basically he remains a Cambridge resident, a "townie." He grew up in the poor part of the city, the son of an Irish welder. Following what has become an almost cliched Irish-American script, he went to St. Mary's High School here and took his orders as a Benedictine monk. When his father died in 1966 he left the priesthood and turned briefly to business before entering politics. He is presently Chairman of the Cambridge Model Cities program, one of the most successful in the nation...
...again. Columbia is starting to look better. Rutgers beat the Lions only 21-14, on a last-minute touchdown, no less. Coach Frank Navarro said he'd make changes after getting bombed by Yale, and apparently. he has made two good ones. John Sefeik. a 156 pound sophomore, gained almost 175 yards last week, and Bill Flynn did a pretty good job as the new quarterback. Could be interesting, but poor, old Columbia will lose number...
YALE-DARTMOUTH: One of the bigger games this wonderful day. I could pick Yale, or I could pick Dartmouth. Let's look at the facts for lack of anything better to do. The Indian's rushing average is almost the highest in the nation. But Yale is one of the most effective teams against the rush. Yale's offense is coming fast, but getting through the Big Green offense is no easy task. I think Dartmouth will have to show a little better passing attack than it did against Harvard, and if it does, the Elis could really get stung...
...right out of normal Westerns. Warhol just makes the themes more explicit. Viva plays a lone woman whose encounters with cowboys repeatedly threaten rape; her wish to be raped is more obvious than in the average heroine. The homosexual bonds within Warhol's band of cowboys are overt, but almost every Western implies them. Here Warhol is applying his approach to film-making-vulgarized mad Hollywood. His earlier films are vehicles for Ingrid Superstar or Edie Sedgwick, counterparts of Hollywood's mere stars. His plots are collections of inter-personal situations as opposed to the New Wave's tight plotting...
