...report that Bishop Newbigin "further observed that modern western society cannot have the cyclical, chronological view point found in the East," is almost beyond belief. The article's final sentence, while like most of the others it is highly distorted, indicates that your staff member did remain in the church to the end of the lecture and serves further to point up his complete failure to grasp any of the lecturer's meaning...
...there are those tender moments when we wish we could forget about time. We have alarm clocks, wall clocks, wrist watches, even a ship's clock in one lucky room, hunger pangs, and the sun (on those rare days) to remind us of mortality. In addition, Mem Church chimes approximately 325 happy times during a weekday, the Lowell House bells ring spasmodically, and there is the sun-dial in back of Lamont.

"The issue of Church unity," Newbigin concluded, "must be treated as an issue not for tomorrow, but for today...
...regression in this general trend is the shelf that even now creeps from the Coop, over Albiani's towards Church Street. The Square's better (liberal progressive twentieth century) half can still triumph over its reactionary rival, though, if it makes the Shelf functional and therefore gloriously modern. Let's make it a nesting place for local pigeons. Or let's run up a block and tackle and turn it into a parking place for motorscooters. The Shelf might make a fine vantage point for cheerleaders, of either sex, to stir the hearts of a Square pep rally...
