...said William Rogers last week after North Korean MIGs shot down a Navy EC-121 reconnaissance plane. The Secretary of State's observation was precisely to the point. The attack was the second atrocity perpetrated by North Korea in 15 months. Again the U.S. found it prudent not to strike back, and this time 31 Americans were dead. There was anger and embarrassment in the Pentagon at this new humiliation. On Capitol Hill, Mendel Rivers, chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, proclaimed: "There can be only one answer for America-retaliation, retaliation, retaliation!"

The task is to figure out a new par, to make black institutions the major innovators." The talk proceeds to a discussion of a new kind of experimental black university. Its program, as Howard outlines it, would be "a largely off-campus experience organically rooted in black culture," would have "a comparative perspective," and place special emphasis on Latin America, Africa, and Asia. "The experiences of the outsider, of the exploited...
...Brown defense should prove a tough match for the high-scoring Crimson attack led by John Ince. The Bruin goalie is third-team All-Ivy choice Roger Bollentin, and veteran co-captain Frank Scofield is one of the big men in front...
