...known addicts. So Drs. Dole and Nyswander began conservatively, with small numbers of patients. They insisted then, and still do, that the addiction must have persisted for four years, that all patients have records of arrests as a result of their habit, and must have failed in using previous cure methods. At first, the doctors met vociferous opposition from fellow physicians and laymen who worried about the morality of giving drugs to addicts. Yet as the number of successful cases grew, they won not only increasing professional tolerance but also prestigious support...

...appears that TIME has chosen to elect Albert Shanker as the villain in the New York City public-school dispute [Oct. 25]. The fact that Albert Shanker lives in Putnam County and earns an annual salary of $16,750 (which TIME stated) bears as much relevance to the cure of the city's ills as the fact that Rhody McCoy lives in Roosevelt, L.I. and earns an annual salary of $30,000 (which TIME neglected to state). If you must elect a villain in this crisis, I suggest that we widen the range of candidates to include Bernard Donovan...
