...Supreme Court last June rejected some reporters' claims that the First Amendment gave them an absolute right to withhold all confidential sources or information from grand juries. The best known of three cases involved New York Times Reporter Earl Caldwell, whose work among West Coast Black Panthers in 1970 had gained him the attention of a federal grand jury, which subpoenaed him to testify "concerning the aims, purposes and activities of that organization." Caldwell argued that even his appearance at closed hearings would destroy his relationship with his sources. By a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court ruled against...
...battle shaping over the First Amendment derives from two specific cases--the espionage trial of Daniel Ellsberg '52 and Anthony Russo in connection with the release of the Pentagon Papers, and the rejection of an appeals case based on confidentiality of news sources filed by New York Times reporter Earl Caldwell. The Ellsberg-Russo ease is an extenuation of the 1971 press "victory" before the Supreme Court.

...cope. Yet Gloria Foster displays little vanity and seems to possess such granitic strength as to have sold the estate and axed the first cherry tree herself. Lopakin, the son of a serf, who buys the Ranevskaya property at auction, is played a shade too unctuously by James Earl Jones, who also lacks the quality of a steely, patient peasant finally coming into his own. Earle Hyman, on the other hand, succeeds as Madame Ra-nevskaya's billiards-obsessed brother Leonid. Hyman's portrayal of world-weary neurasthenia and narcotized memories of past luxury perfectly realizes one important...
