...grew in size and frequency. In April, 1940, a CRIMSON editorial probably expressed the feelings of most when it said. "The United States should ... face the fact that neutral countries in Europe will be crushed.... If only blood can wash away the strange quirks in the human mind that breed war... there is still no reason why it must be done with American blood...
...another. As Mathes put it: "The editor of magazine X publishes frequently in magazine Y, which just happens to be the magazine edited by the poet who appears regularly in magazine Z."

Vietnam in Turmoil, shown Wednesday at the Harvard Square Theatre, represents a new breed of films: the travelogue-war movie.

But the 4-H sex appeal of this genial western centers principally upon a white-faced bull named Vindicator. A hornless Hereford, he arrives in America well before the turn of the century, chaperoned by Maureen and plucky Juliet Mills as a well-bred English mother and daughter with some eccentric ideas about animal husbandry. Their hefty British bull is just the thing, they swear, to beef up the herds...
