...freshman mixers, and blood donations. Sanders Theater is the University's largest auditorium, and the offices in the basement are home for a number of organizations. But, for what may well be Harvard's most desirable construction site, these functions are relatively insignificant and hardly justify the building's bulk...
...long-needed nudge" in behalf of a law that has produced results far short of their expectations-with the possible exception of Alabama (see below). Where they had hoped that 1,000,000 new Negro voters would be on the rolls in time for the 1966 elections-the bulk of them in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina-the actual number signed up in those five states since the voting act became effective last Aug. 6 is closer to 303,000.

See me dance at my marriage ceremonial.' Never up, down or across creation could there be a lovelier sight." An unobtrusive...
...Launch Complex 34 of Cape Kennedy stood Saturn IB, the mightiest rocket the U.S. - and most likely the world - has ever known. The 224-ft.tall bird, with a fantastic initial thrust of 1,600,000 lbs. to hurl its 650-ton bulk into space, was ready for its first crucial test. Atop Saturn's nose sat the payload: the 33,800-lb. Apollo three-man command capsule and service module that will transport U.S. astronauts to the moon and back. If the U.S. is to achieve its goal by 1969, now was the time to start ironing out the bugs...
