...swimming team didn't do as well as Yale against Penn Saturday at the IAB, but they sure came close. Crimson Coach Bill Brooke used an experimental makeup-- Bill Shrout swam in only one event, and breaststroker Bob Corris led off the freestyle relay -- but that didn't deter the Crimson as they swamped the Quakers, 71-23, amassing only three points less than the Yalies...

Significantly, it was Traynor who also eased the furor over Mapp by arguing in 1961 that the exclusionary rule should not be made retroactive. Its purpose, he noted, was to deter lawless police action from then on-not to help free prisoners who had been convicted on previously admissible evidence. Last year the Supreme Court followed precisely that reasoning in Linkletter v. Louisiana, which ruled out Mapp's retroactivity...

...President should set up within the Justice Department a special branch of federal law enforcement agents, empowered to make on-the-spot arrests for violations of federal law, who would be sent to areas of repeated or probable racial violence. The presence of such agents would deter potential lawbreakers, who currently have little to fear either from sympathetic local police or from FBI agents, who have been instructed to observe racial crimes but not to arrest the criminals.
