...feminists have solid legal grounds for other actions. Partly as a joke, Congressman Howard W. Smith of Virginia, then 81, added "sex" to the section of the 1964 Civil Rights Act that prohibited employment discrimination on the basis of "race, color, religion or national origin." There was a good deal of laughter, but the House passed the bill. It has taken a while for feminists to grasp what they can do under Title VII, but charges of discrimination against women in business and industry account for about 7,500 of the 44,000 complaints filed so far with the Equal...
Fire Sale. For Storer, which acquired its Northeast stock from Hughes Tool Co. in 1965, the deal makes sense. True, Northwest will give only one share of its stock, worth about $35, for five Northeast shares, which traded at a total of almost $70 just before the announcement.

It has put $35 million into Northeast, and will receive Northwest stock currently worth around $38 million, plus a Northwest promise...

Last week union negotiators and Inco reached a tentative but shaky agreement that would increase the average hourly pay of workers from $3.10 to $3.98 over three years. If finally accepted, the Inco deal would also be the basis for ending a parallel work stoppage at Falcon-bridge Nickel Mines, a smaller Ontario firm. Even after work is resumed, however, the delivery pipeline will not be refilled for at least five months, and the scarcity will continue...
...this D.C. bus, here I was, wearing a pair of jeans whose zipper was broken, as well as a jacket that didn't quite fit, and looking just as objectionable as I possibly could. Perhaps, after all, streetfighting was a pretty good deal-at least, it allowed for an indulgence that even the new politics couldn't accommodate...
...there are problems concerning wages for painters' helpers, they do not emerge from racist attitudes and that these men as well as Ernest May are susceptible to rational arguments for changes in policy. Abusive treatment and war games will not provoke much response from anybody who attempts to conscientiously deal with differing points of view. Regardless of what any individual may feel about Ernest May or any other member of the University, the treatment that the Dean received yesterday was inexcusable and inappropriate...
