CBLF was founded five months ago to deal "first-hand" with urban ghetto problems where federal and municipal authorities have allegedly failed. It is presently seeking financial and material support from citizens, business, and churches in the Riverside area...
...Council, and initially at least, five students designated by the Harvard-Radcliffe Policy Committee and appointed by the Dean. In suggesting initial reliance on the HRPC to designate the student contingent to this committee, we have been greatly influenced by the high quality of past HRPC performance in this area.

We realize that there are many possible ways of combining an appointive and elective system, and we are not so wedded to this system that we would foreclose the consideration of others. Without claiming any exclusive merits for our proposals, we do believe that...
