Ellis said yesterday that his report will be only a factual account of what happened during the week of April 7-14. Ellis plans to present a preliminary version to the Overseers at their May 11 meeting. The report will not be made public unless the Overseers decide to do so, he said, adding that all interviews will be kept confidential...
...Consciousness-Expanding Drug, edited by David Solomon (G. P. Putnam's-Berkeley Medallion Edition, paperback, 1967, 248 pp.). This collection of essays and articles pro and con has a slim amount of factual information, and some interesting speculations about LSD. Included are reports of LSD experiments with terminal cancer patients, alcoholics, and the "mentally ill," as well as articles by Aldous Huxley, Alan Watts, William Burroughs, Leary, and other journalists of psychedelia...
Drama of Responsibility. One way out of the morass might be to determine first only the factual question of whether a man committed an illegal act.

It might, for instance, lead to further disputes about whether...

Why should the U.S. unilaterally announce a cut in its forces, asks the Nixon Administration, without trying to get something in return from Hanoi...
...factual background on each school varies from irrelevant to misleading. Two-thirds of the first page on Penn talks about a new swimming pool. Dartmouth is most famous for its computer (after its team spirit, of course) and secondly famous because "even classrooms are left unlocked after hours to allow extra study space for students who want an entire room, complete with blackboards, chalk, and 20 empty desks, to study in." Only after six pages of computer sketches of Snoopy and praise for the Dartmouth campus--traditional Ivy Covered in rural New England setting--do the authors drop Dartmouth...
