...such a position? He did not ask for Viet Nam. Why must some be called upon for such a sacrifice? Do we care enough? Some of these fine men are not even old enough to vote, yet they are asked to give their lives for a war that seems endless. God help us to care, and most of all, to end this senseless mess in Viet...
...stop at an elementary stage of psychic integration, content with his own petty, geometrical, spiritual stability, knowing exactly what is good and what is evil, and never in doubt. For it was not to him that El Greco, Thomas Mann and Dostoyevsky spoke, but to him who undergoes an endless process of self-development, whose unrest is not general but directed towards a search for the truth about himself and his mission in life."

That is nearly as high as hens (.9), which forge their chains of command in a way that has become a behavioral cliché-the pecking order.

For one, the show does not commit itself to endless and eventually monotonous replays of the same top seven songs every week, as did Hit Parade. Instead, Music Scene tunes are picked from any place on any of the Billboard "Hot 100" or bestseller charts (soul, country, "easy listening"). On opening night the producers shrewdly mixed things up, booking Tom Jones, James Brown and Buck Owens-plus the Beatles. Between numbers...
