...ordinary wage slave, I find the drop in the nation's production no mystery. About one-third of my wage vanishes into some fiscal never-never land before I see it. Why put forth more effort when, between taxes and inflation, one is either standing still or slipping backward? I still try, though I wonder...

...finding Indian graves and getting the whole area protected from APCO by having it registered as a National Historic Place is just one of several desperate ways in which the people of Brumley Gap are trying to fend off inundation. The Indian relic idea is not entirely farfetched either. Store Owner Holmes recently found a Paleo-Indian double-fluted pentagonal flint point dating from 9000 B.C.

...minded freshmen took it upon themselves two years ago to change the composition and procedures of the Committee on Rights and Responsibilities (CRR) by breaking the seven-year boycott of the CRR and boring from within, there was some hope that they would be able to force the Faculty either to make significant changes in the CRR or abolish it entirely. At last week's Faculty meeting, the members of the class of 1980 who broke the CRR boycott were able to see the fruits of their labor enacted in Faculty legislation. They could not fail to have been disappointed...
