With regard to Area A, the survey discovered that the parking capacity at the time was only equal to 53 per cent of the parking demand--1031 car spaces being available as compared with a demand for 2074. (The demand figures were not a simple count of the number of cars which park in the area, but represented the number of spaces which would be required on the average day so that cars would not have to park on public streets.) The problem in this area was almost exclusively one of faculty and student commuters and employees, rather than...
...time the Supreme Court struck down the old separate-but-equal doctrine, on May 17, 1954, public school segregation was maintained by law in 17 states and in the District of Columbia. Last week, with a new school semester under way, a few headline-making blots of disorder in the South obscured the fact that approximately 122,000 Negro children are actually sitting in Southern classrooms with white children in formerly segregated schools. And this figure does not take in the federally operated schools (e.g., on military posts) that have integrated since May 1954, or Roman Catholic parochial schools, which...

The young colonels, headed by fair-skinned, 35-year-old Lieut. Colonel Ventje Sumual, put their faith in the one Indonesian whose prestige is at all equal to Sukarno's: Mohammed Hatta. Hatta, one of the "founding fathers" of Indonesia along with Sukarno, resigned last December as Vice President, in protest at Sukarno's insistence on Communist participation in his "guided democracy," which has helped the Communists win a string of electoral victories in Java...
...Alexander dropped dead at 26,"*suggested a learned visitor who had been wondering out loud whether the champ's aging (37) legs and slowing fists were equal to 15 rugged rounds. But Ray professed not to hear. "We know what Basilio's been doin'," said Sugar's soft-spoken manager, George Gainford. "Practicing bobbing and weaving. We know what to do about that. Look at his face. He's been hit plenty, so why can't Robby hit him? When the fight's over, why I'll assist Mr. Basilio...
