...Between Arab and Jew, the taste of blood is not easily forgotten. Even while the U.N. Security Council was debat ing the extent of Israel's blame for its "punitive invasion" of Jordan two weeks ago, both sides were rolling up their sleeves for another battle. Israel, ever more touchy about the incursions of Arab commandos across the River Jor dan, massed troops, tanks and artillery in the Beisan valley south of the Sea of Galilee awaiting an excuse to renew the offensive. Jordan, cheered beyond measure by the fact that its troops had knocked out a dozen Israeli...
Hallway Sack Out. In hopes of getting the students to return to their classes, Gomulka pledged to "consider" grievances drafted by legitimate student groups, meaning those that met with rectors' permission. More important, he softened as "ill-considered" an antiZionist campaign that had passed off most of the blame for the unrest on Jew ish intellectuals. Gomulka, whose wife is Jewish, promised exit visas to Jews who want to move to Israel and en dorsed the majority of Polish Jews as loyal builders of socialism.

Typical of a business where the decision-makers blame their audiences' tastes rather than their own for what gets on the air, Dozier produced not only Batman but also two other series that contributed to TV's debasement during that period-Green Hornet and The Tammy Grimes Show.

Yet Kennedy himself, by his constant criticism, had helped cause division in the first place, and was well aware of the Democrats' dissensions long before New Hampshire. It was the practical demonstration that mattered: the results of the primary showed as nothing had before how vulnerable Johnson...
Still, Ramparts is far from rescued. Its overall deficit stands at about $250,000; its editors put the blame on timid advertisers frightened off by the magazine's iconoclasm. This is true in part; its contents encourage people to imagine a CIA operative behind every bush-or a Kennedy assassin. But Ramparts has had plenty of other troubles. After a furious intramural spat, it ousted Founder-Publisher Edward Keating. Total adulation of the Black Power movement, plus an article blaming the Middle East war on Israel, caused two other wealthy backers of the magazine to withdraw support...
