Last summer, in the week that followed the break-in at Watergate, only four TIME readers wrote to the editors to express their views.

...finale, Weicker gave what he called "my partisan comment." Far from being ready to switch parties, Weicker said, "I think I express the feelings of the 42 other Republican Senators that I work with, and the Republicans of the state of Connecticut, and in fact the Republican Party, far better than these illegal, unconstitutional and gross acts which have been committed over the past several months by various individuals."

With this confession, an unhappy 17-year-old college freshman recently tried to express to M.I.T. Psychotherapist Thomas Cottle her confusion about contemporary sexual mores.

When she finally does deliver the ransom, she collapses hysterically in her now aged lover's arms only to find that...
...Cukor's playful digs at romanticism still haven't inured him to it. Over-fond of the past, he brings confused eyes to the present, and stretches the contrast between to ludicrous dimensions. On the Orient Express Henry smokes dope with a wealthy bluejeaned backpacking American girl. Her father is in the CIA, her boyfriend a pop artist, and she can talk of nothing but the fact that her period is late and whom among her countless bedmates could the culprit be? Then Henry sleeps with her. The girl is just a modern version of Aunt Augusta, but stripped...
