...IMPORTANT to distinguish the problems of form and function in Mather House. As a collection of masses, the building succeeds admirably. The tower balances with Peabody Terrace, the low-rise balances with Dunster House, and the idea of an interior space gives the whole affair a kind of lumbering cosmic equilibrium. Terra cotta was the original choice for the exterior faces, and the texture which it would have provided might have prevented the tower from looking like a rouged waffle-iron...

All ten were equally able to resist the opiates to which they were addicted. For the present, 1-methadyl acetate is being produced only for investigational purposes and is not available for addiction-treatment programs.

A 22-year-old platoon commander during the Battle of the Bulge, Mulliken stopped a sergeant from shooting German prisoners held in a farmhouse, though "no one would have been able to distinguish the bodies of those Germans from the ones already lying on the cold December ground outside." Mulliken, like most combat veterans, can understand how bystanders often become casualties during fierce fighting. This fact cannot justify My Lai, he feels, because neither the victims nor anyone else offered resistance...
