...Smart move," said a faculty member. "Instead of importing some managerial type, they got a humanist to soften the blow." The humanist in question is A. (for Angelo) Bartlett Giamatti, 39, a Yale professor of Renaissance literature, who last week was named 19th president of the university after a nine-month search almost as much talked about as David O.

Recent testimony before congressional committees, the report by Senators Sam Nunn and Dewey Bartlett cataloguing NATO's weaknesses, and statements by West European leaders have all sounded that alarm. Exactly how much the Soviets are spending is a question that has long bedeviled the West. To begin with, the published Soviet military budget is far from a reliable guide.
