...should point out that a similar door-drop battle was fought last fall in the Yard. The superintendent's office imposed a total ban on all materials not subscibed to or requested by students, saying the level of trash in the halls was too great.

...some legal experts have also begun to talk about an emerging "drug exception" to the Fourth Amendment ban on unreasonable searches and seizures -- a willingness by courts, where drugs are concerned, to permit searches they might otherwise disallow.

There he stormed at his visitor, declaring that the Austrian problem must be solved or his army would demand its "just revenge." When Schuschnigg asked what it was that Hitler wanted, he was handed a typed "agreement" and told that...
