Religious and psychiatric counsel are suggested as the proper forms of advice, however. The committee claims that reasonable parietal rules have little effect on the frequency of sexual intercourse by most students and do not encourage immoral behavior...
...experience of the four ex-Law School professors has been slightly less academic than Bell's. Abram Chayes, who has served as Legal Counsel to the State Department since 1961, has been deeply involved in several key foreign policy issues throughout his stay in Washington. "There is nothing that doesn't have legal aspects," says Chayes, who has dealt with problems ranging from, the Cuban crisis and the Moscow test-ban treaty to the first international piracy case in 100 years--the hijacking of the Santa Maria from Portugal in 1961. He has worked on the thorny legal questions...
While working on the legal problems of the Moscow treaty, Chayes was in constant contact with John McNaughton, who has the parallel post of General Counsel to the Department of Defense. McNaughton has been in the job since July 1962. Before that, he was deputy assistant secretary for arms control under Paul Nitze, dealing with Berlin crisis matters. Now, as the chief legal advisor to the Pentagon, McNaughton spends about half his time on "the charter responsibilities of the job"--the purely legal questions of defense matters--and the other half on special assignments...

Vance is the odds-on choice to succeed Manhattan Lawyer Roswell Gilpatric as Deputy Secretary of Defense. Likely to follow Vance as Army Secretary is Assistant Navy Secretary Kenneth BeLieu, 49, a former staff director for that same subcommittee...
Aside from his longtime advocacy of tariff cutting (the U.S. "cannot be protectionist and prosperous"), Johnson is not known for strong expressions of economic philosophy. Much of his economic counsel in the past has come from fairly conservative businessmen and advisers. Among them: Robert Anderson, a Texan who was Dwight Eisenhower's Treasury Secretary and is now a limited partner of Wall Street's Loeb, Rhoades; George Brown, president of Houston's Brown & Root, one of the world's largest building contractors; and Manhattan's Edwin Weisl, a wealthy corporate lawyer and Johnson...
