...wake of the "Battle of Chicago," the press is being subjected to a great deal of criticism about its coverage. As is customary and proper in such a situation, editors and newsmen are also subjecting themselves to much self-scrutiny and self-criticism (see THE PRESS). The discussions generally center on the question of objectivity. Was the press "objective" in its reporting? Or was it slanted, trying to document its own sense of outrage. The moment offers us a welcome opportunity to restate TIME'S own views about objectivity...
...highest position in the gift of the people, without any of the cares and responsibilities of the office." It is doubtful if a loser in one of today's superheated campaigns would be so graceful-or indeed whether a minority President like Adams or Hayes could deal with Congress or the world on so minuscule a mandate.

Harvard fans will not forget, however, that Bobby Leo '66, as a highly touted sophomore, also missed the whole pre-season and then most of the regular campaign because of an injury, finally getting...
...torrent of analytical advice that pours from Wall Street is hardly noted for its literary style, much less its wit. "We send a great deal of literature to our clients-most of it deadly dull," says Sidney Homer, 65, research partner of Salomon Bros. & Hutzler, one of the Street's largest bond dealers. Last week, however, Salomon Bros, was mailing its clients something different: a privately published book of Homer's needling sallies at the very serious world of bond investment...
