...real changes began a decade ago with the gradual easing of industry censorship. Although the deviate references in Tennessee Williams' Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958) were cooled down considerably for the screen, two years later his Suddenly Last Summer was filmed with explicit references to pederasty. In the early '60s, the central characters in both Advise and Consent and The Best Man had their political careers ruined by past homosexual experiences. But even last year, some American film makers were still shy about dealing with the subject too openly: Richard Brooks eliminated most of the overt...

"What you are really saying," Fulbright retorted, "is that the civilian heads of the Department of Defense...

Although there are many conflicting preferences within this faculty, the Committee ranks at the top of its priorities the improvement in the starting rate for new Ph.D.'s and selected increases in the salary of younger tenure members during the period of ten to twenty years after the doctorate...
