...seems to me, is not the substantive questions with which it purports to deal (Is the Black Studies program an academic joke? Is black racism rampant at Harvard?) but the psycho-dynamics underlying them. Any discussion of such questions threatens to bring to light the degree to which the brand of black militancy" now popular on campus is purely the creation of liberal masochism, and, as such, a phenomenon of group psychology rather than politics. But we must remember that the fairy-tale about the emperor's new clothes is really the story of a psychodrama, and though...
...Senate, parts of the Nixon program could easily get lost, distorted or delayed as ambitious Democrats eye 1972. Maine's Muskie will want to keep his brand on the environmental controls he has long championed. South Dakota's George McGovern will push the war on hunger. Ted Kennedy will be seeking national health insurance. Iowa's Harold Hughes has some ideas about combatting drugs and alcoholism. Oklahoma's Fred Harris wants to shape family assistance his own way. Indiana's Birch Bayh will continue to guard the pass on Nixon appointments...

Mrs. Michel Auder in relatively real life, Viva combines the best features of a beautiful woman, a four-year-old child and a man from Mars, and is about to try a new role: motherhood. It should...
Shorts? Absolutely. And not just the ordinary old ho-hum sportswear type, but a brand-new outrageous variety, cut higher, tighter and altogether skimpier than anything Ruby Keeler ever kicked in (see THE THEATER). No longer fashioned of sturdy standards like denim and broadcloth, the current crop is made of flashier stuff-mink and monkey fur, silk and satin, calfskin, chiffon and cut velvet. The accepted generic term, hot pants, lends the style the leering inference of an adolescent joke. But short shorts are no joke; they are serious business, and women in major European and U.S. cities are currently...
