...positive side, our roots have withered--if one will define "radicalism" as the roots of life. There's no foment, no bubbling cauldron. We could not conceive of the American Legion picketing the Experimental Theatre today, as it did in the '30's; nor could we imagine a group of us sponsoring speeches by strike leaders in 105 Dartmouth; a Marxist Study Club today would sound heinous to the present undergraduate, and Humphrey C.

At the South Boston Boys' Club alone 1500 kids delighted in the old standbys of sawing girls in half, sipping eider, and calling forth taffy apples from a cauldron of goo. This afternoon is the Rutgers game: another squad of 30 leaders will corral a howling 200 anxious to see football played in the Stadium...
