...other cities with large university populations, students became involved in local campaigns--in Berkeley, Madison and Ann Arbor they elected radical city governments. Cambridge City Councilor Saundra Graham may have had something like that in mind for her Grass Roots Organization, but the GRO's candidates--except for her--did miserably their first time out. Individual Harvard students have gone in to electoral politics quite frequently--McGovern's pre-convention pollsters in 1972 were Harvard seniors--and back in 1968, Harvard students ran an anti-war referendum campaign. But even then it was clear that Cambridge was not Berkeley. Even...
...inauguration takes a similar tack, minimizing his record (termed "far to the right of center") because, in the article's words, "whatever limitations that record may suggest...there is little question that Mr. Ford brings a dogged determination to the Oval Office.

Yet unlike the flower children (of whom only a few remain), the new group of itinerant youths have not rejected the Establishment out of ideological beliefs.

The firm claimed that its scientists had briefly sustained a laser-generated fusion reaction and called its work a "definitive step" toward taming thermonuclear fusion-the same process that produces the explosive power of the hydrogen bomb and the vast heat and radiation...
...initial step." But at week's end doubt was growing among some nuclear scientists that the laboratory had done anything more than Soviet and U.S. researchers had previously announced. In fact, it seemed quite possible that true thermonuclear fusion had not really occurred at all during the Ann Arbor experiments...
