...history of desegregating schools is short and it is unpleasant. For each progressive step, there seem to be two steps back. In 1954, after 60 years of Supreme Court decisions allowing the dual school systems in the South, Earl Warren's court finally made the break. Warren's decision had two memorable bits of language: the first, now reverently recited by civil rights lawyers, is that "separate schools are inherently in equal." That was good. But the other phrase almost negated the decision's value...

...advice from ex-burglar Robert Earl Barnes [Sept. 6] in his illustrated booklet "How Safe Is Your Home from Burglars?" must be in preparation for a new rash of burglaries. If we followed his advice about changing the hinges so that doors opened out rather than in, it would be an open invitation for the burglar to simply remove the door rather than have to kick...

...time attacking Democratic liberals, last week he finally turned equal fire on the G.O.P. "If you vote the national Republican ticket," he told a Little Rock, Ark., audience, "you have thrown your vote away." In 1952, he reminded them, Republicans said "pretty things" to the South, but then appointed Earl Warren to the Supreme Court.

...nagged the Senators. The objections to his role as Lyndon Johnson's backstairs adviser were heightened by reports that Fortas had substantially rewritten a first version of the President's 1966 State of the Union Message. Some Senators were also bothered by the fact that Chief Justice Earl Warren had not really resigned, but has only opted to retire if and when a successor was agreed upon.

...flanks, Varney's move seems so successful that he may end up being a better end than halfback. His counterpart, now that Stargel is out, will probably be Earl Strayhorn, a quick, 6'2",190 lb. junior. Because of a summer knee injury, the plan to move Stargel from halfback to end this season has been shelved. He is trying to strengthen his knee now in the hope that he can get by without an operation, and eventually help out at halfback. Tony Smith, currently out with a bad hamstring pull, John Kiernan, also injured, and Bruce Freeman are sufficiently...
