Since Harvard property is located in seven of the eleven proposed zoning districts, the University would have to conform to a diversity of restrictions intended to control industrial, commercial, and residential development.

...letter to the CRIMSON, Professor Karl Sax is quite justified in condemning restriction of information about birth control and of birth control propaganda. However, the statement in the CRIMSON'S article of December 2, that Widener is guilty of such restriction, was in error. I am currently engaged in research for an honors thesis on the subject of the Massachusetts birth control law.

...hint was casually and artfully dropped at a London cocktail party by a member of the family: the Berrys would like to sell their controlling interest in the sprawling Amalgamated Press Ltd. magazine and periodical empire (72 publications).

...their up-from-the-roundhouse breed. The son of a wealthy Wausau, Wis. lumberman who went broke in the Depression, Heineman studied law at Northwestern University ('36), set up practice in Chicago. In 1954, invited in by dissident investors, he won an acrimonious proxy war for control of the little Minneapolis & St. Louis Railway, boosted earnings fast. In 1956, with one-third of its stock in his control, Heineman went after the much bigger but shaky North Western, was invited in by the board as chairman. A few hours after taking over, Heineman left on a six-week...
