...advocates such policies as breaking relations with the United States and making an independent deal with the Soviets to secure reunification. The Party style, however, scares people as much as its policies. Its large boisterous meetings, protected by club-swinging stewards, often end in violence, bringing back memories of the end of the Weimar Republic, One meeting this summer was drowned in the cry of "Sieg Heil" from NDP opponents (mostly students) and ended with a NDP speaker leaving the dais yelling "and we shall carry on till everything is kaputt...
This year the Harvard Dramatic Club will do three plays at the Loeb during the fall term: Williams' Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Chekhov's Three Sisters, and John Bowen's After the Rain (a sort of parable play that was a critical success and audience bomb in London and New York).

As Roche advanced toward the finals, Laver's luck looked even less assured. In matches earlier this year, Roche defeated Laver five out of seven times.
