...really think,' said the Jester, 'that one of the biggest reasons Lampy has survived, and as successfully as he has, is the graduate loyalty that has always been behind him.'" One must agree. But if Lampy plans to clutter up our newstands in the Square for another 80 years, he should look for support else-where--even, we hesitate to say it, to us. And all we have is sober apathy...

In his twelve-year regime, a short one as Guardian editors go, Wadsworth trebled circulation (to 167,000) and challenged the London Times in the influence of its editorial voice.

...almost obsolete campaign train, which will be revived fitfully this month, was relished by none: it once meant days on end without showers, air conditioning or stationary sleep.
