...Herald-Traveler Corporation's bosses decided simply that the Traveler --one of the last voices of the old Boston which they represented--was losing too much money. TheTraveler's continued existence would merely make things dangerous for all of the company's holdings, the morning Boston Herald, WHDH-TV (Channel 5), and Radio Stations WHDH-AM, and WHDH-FM. So, they reached a decision and two weeks ago announced the death of the Traveler...

At the behest of the Ford Foundation, the Health Ministry began in 1966 to use this commercial pipeline for a pilot program in condom distribution in the Meerut...
Student agitators for reform at the Harvard Law School found too that the law faculty was not only willing to provide them with a channel for their complaints, but was far less hostile to specific reforms than the students might have suspected. In November of 1966, Dean Griswold appointed twelve members to a joint student-faculty committee to discuss all issues of student complaint. Independent agitation for such a committee had come from individual students, from Professor Clark Byse who used these students as his allies to start the faculty moving toward reform...
