...future issues, the Behavior staff will be writing about almost everything that falls beneath that broad heading, from hippies' communes to animal studies that shed light on man's actions, from ESP to minorities and prejudice. As the major story in the first section, the editors present Sociologist Erving Goffman and his studies of the rules underlying behavior at the impromptu social events that he calls "gatherings." The story was written by Associate Editor John Koffend and edited by Senior Editor John T. Elson, both of whom this week launch a section that TIME intends...
...left, one sit-in leader observed: "I don't believe it. There's a guy we've been cursing for twelve months, and when he shows up in person everyone sits in stunned silence." Last summer, Packard hired Phil Taubman, a Stanford Daily editor and TIME campus correspondent, as "radical in residence," with free rein to look into any aspects of Hewlett-Packard's operations he chose.

According to Talese's rather far-fetched...
Throughout the narrative, Talese analyzes the ambitions and anxieties of figures high and low in the Times hierarchy. Managing Editor Clifton Daniel's fortunes have declined under Punch, Talese figures, but the publisher's cousin, John Oakes, editor of the editorial page, remains in favor, "attacking issues with an aggressiveness that Adolph Ochs would have never tolerated, and sniping at important people once regarded within the Times as 'sacred cows.'"
