...real problem is a civic rather than a political one. No matter why Ward was dismissed, a large part of the Cambridge population believes Vellucci's accusations. Anthony Bruno, a teacher at a local vocational school, said at the Council meeting that his students are convinced Ward was fired for political motives alone, and that they resent his successor. The danger exists that not only will an exceptional youth worker be lost, but that his accomplishments will be wiped...

But Communist support was, as one observer put it, "ein Judaskuss." To most Austrians, Communism still means the rapacious Soviet occupation troops.

Columbia's Steve Weinstein and Bruno Santonocito and Penn's Steve Permut will tangle for first place...
Skiers at Innsbruck and St. Anton tied their skis together with rubber binders that boosted Dr. Josef Klaus for Chancellor. In Vienna, shoppers were assaulted by Technicolored posters plumping for "Pittermann, Always a Democrat, Always for Austria!", and others found their mailboxes stuffed with pamphlets showing Dr. Bruno Pittermann fondling his black cat Petzi. Even the revelers at the huge Vienna Staatsoper Fasching ball could not escape a host of beaming candidates. Austria was in the midst of a bitterly contested election campaign...
