Meanwhile, those who administer T.S.U. feel themselves in a tenuous position. Dean of Students James B. Jones warned the students that the legislature is meeting right now to consider a cut in the university's already skimpy budget. An active SNCC chapter on the campus, Dean Jones reasons, would certainly not appease the legislators from the segregationist citadels of rural east Texas. Jones added that the university's present fund-raising campaign in Houston might be endangered if radical Black Power advocates gained too much student support, or any form of toleration from the administration. Indeed, if the editorial policy...

...explosiveness of the situation, a group of faculty members recommended the next day that the administration reinstate the Friends of SNCC immediately, issue a statement clarifying the circumstances of Mack Jones' dismissal, and promise not to call the police.

Danger lurks at such a crossroad, but have no fear. It is merely time for aggressive imagination...

...about old Joe's family and how they came to India from Poland or Lithuania and all. His mother is always telling Joe to tuck his goddam shirt in, but she's mostly wrapped up in all the swell work she's doing for the Bombay chapter of the Hadassah and worrying about her daughters marrying some Buddhist. His father-Sir Abraham for Chrissake-is a King's Counsel, a lawyer who's only interested in making money. Boy, that's one thing Joe is really ambivalent about. "I hated the poor because they...

...greater tolerance for criticism that comes from within the party. Unlike Mihajlov, the Praxis editors do not go so far as to challenge one-party predominance. They do, however, advocate more party democracy. Since most of the contributors are Communists, their arguments are usually buttressed with skillful Marxist chapter and verse that is hard to refute. Tito closed down Praxis for so-called "ideological deviations," but later relented. Last week, in a triumphant return to the newsstands (the entire 5,000-copy edition was sold out), the editors boldly announced: "We are not convinced that we were mistaken...
