...Brick by Brick. Powell, along with most others, figures that he is a cinch for re-election next November to a third gubernatorial term. But his figuring goes far beyond that. He plans to start barn storming nationally in 1963, then to enter New Hampshire's presidential primary, the first of the year, in March...

And that wouldn't have been because he spent so much time working on the second act either...
...annual room charge, standardized last year at $460, will go up to $500. Full board, required of all students living in the nine brick dormitories, will rise from $570 to $620 a year. Off-campus board fees will be $256 annually, an increase...
