...October found him in Thomasville, Ga. for a speech to the Rotary and Kiwanis clubs. From there the trail led to Cairo, Ga., his native town of Amherst, to Danbury, Conn., Painesville, Ohio, Gainesville, Fla. Last week, back from Abbeville, he spoke at Democratic meetings in New Castle and Easton, Pa., at St. Louis' Washington University, and at a Kansas City meeting of the Missouri Press Association. This week, after a speech at McKendree College in Lebanon, Ill., he heads for Alaska. Toward year's end he will take...
...Charles) Easton Rothwell, 57, as eighth president of select (enrollment: 726) Mills College for women, "the Vassar of the West," in Oakland, Calif.

At present, however, Easton...
...some light tracery on a flute. Juliet appears in a white nightgown, sinks on her knees, spreads her elbows on the balcony to support her head, and lets the light catch her soft, blond tresses--all girlishly, but never awkwardly. The rest of the scene is magic. As Easton plays it, he works himself up until he all but shouts, "And thou but love me, let them find me here!" At this instant, like a boy who has just dropped the cookie jar, he fears he may have been overheard and jumps back with a frightened glance over his shoulder...
