...would openly confirm the rumors, however. Sub-cabinet appointments are only official when they have been announced, and HEW Secretary-designate Joseph A. Califano Jr. didn't mention his choice for under secretary in his confirmation hearing before the Senate yesterday...
...merits of these two task force reports, the college life task force report, released this week, seems unimpressive and disappointing. The first reports gave indications that Dean Rosovsky's review of undergraduate education could result in at least a different, more rational College.

"A technical mother lode." one Navy official called...

The fragment also seems to confirm Harold Bloom's controversial claim in A Map of Misreading that Milton's "allusiveness introjects the past, and projects the future, but at the paradoxical cost of the present, which is not voided but is yielded up to an experiential darkness." The fragment is printed here for the first time, with spelling...
