...week in the life of crime is never enough to establish the existence of increased danger in any urban area. The staff thus overstates its concern for long-term student safety based on a questionable pattern of three unrelated crimes. Instead, the focus should rest on the recent robbery in the Winthrop JCR. Rarely are students forced to confront assailants in the comfort of their own houses or dorms...
...deserves. The TIME/CNN poll shows that 54% of Americans think the President's moral standards are "about the same as the average married man's." While it's hard to tell whether this is good news for the President or bad news for average married men, the real danger for Clinton is that what had once been mostly confined to the back of the national classroom is now up at the chalkboard giving lessons. The problem for the President isn't that Leno, Bill Maher and Conan O'Brien are talking about his sex life night after night (luckless David...
...skier, and his death was not the result of reckless behavior [NATION, Jan. 12]. I was one of several fathers participating in the ski football game the day of the accident. I would certainly not have played with my 11-year-old son if there had been any evident danger. None of us were told not to play by any official of the Aspen Skiing Co.

The narrow range of Duvall's voice can convey muscle and danger; the music is lacking. His whoop is a thing of will, not an expression of soulful exuberance. For that, listen to the real preachers Duvall hired for small roles. Black or white, they'll have you lining up to be baptized in the nearest creek or bayou...
...fabulous invalid" for nothing, and there's a half-empty part to Broadway's current cocktail. Some of the Old Guard fear that the rich corporate players are making it harder for independent producers and smaller musicals (not to mention straight plays--remember them?) to compete. "The danger with $20 million musicals," says veteran producer Emanuel Azenberg, "is that you have to run for 28 years, have five companies around the world and play to the lowest common denominator." Azenberg's Side Show was one of two decent little musicals (the other was Triumph of Love) that recently closed, unable...
