Most yachtsmen are eager to keep waterways clean and clear. They want to swim and fish over the side without encountering colon bacteria and other health hazards. And until recently, they never thought of themselves as polluters. Although the traditional marine "head" simply flushes wastes through the side of the boat and into the water, such sewage, thanks to nature's purifying processes, used to be only a modest problem in fresh waters and no problem at all in tide-flushed coastal waters...

Almost all nutrients enter the system by absorption through the walls of the small intestine, which had been removed and replaced by an emergency short circuit from the patient's duodenum to the remainder of her colon (see diagram). The only recourse was intravenous feeding, which is rarely satisfactory for more than a few weeks, even in a hospital. And Jane Smith (not her real name), 37, was eager to go home to her two young children...

Which leaves Steven Kelman's Push Comes To Shove: The Escalation of Student Protest (Houghton Mifflin, $5.95, paper $2.95). (Does a colon in the title lend an air of legitimacy to an undergraduate's first published writings?) Despite, or perhaps because of, one of the nastiest reviews the CRIMSON has ever written, Shove is completely sold out at the Coop. President Pusey reportedly distributes copies to his friends. The book has been heralded across the country as at last printing the truth about the hypocrisy of student radicals. Though the core of Kelman's analysis of radical actions at Harvard...

...Figures are worthless bunk. A 1956 per-capital income of $520 is the average of the disparate incomes of millionaires, executives, doctors, campesinos earning less than $100 a year, prostitutes, and the unemployed (over 10 per cent). I lived in Cuba in that year of 1956, and people in Colon and Pinar de Rio didn't even seem to be sharing in that $520. Venezucla's per-capital income is even higher-$800; any visitor to Caracas who has seen the miles of mud-built slums knows that per-capital income, as applied to Latin America, is pure poppycock...
