...Michael Curtis reflected, "and my job is behind the desk. This brought me jowl to jowl with people and places I would otherwise have never seen. These people have decided to take charge of their own lives." Said John Herbers, a veteran civil rights reporter: "The situation changes so fast you have to keep going back. I was surprised at the extent of activity in these communities. Also surprising was the unity among them on what their purpose is, despite organizational fragmentation...
...fast, fellas and girls. Remember Publisher Freddy Mitchell's vow to keep the magazine alive at all costs? Well, no sooner had Warren left than the gang got together and decided that what they had to do was file bankruptcy papers. And they did! That was last February.

"We cannot go much further," says Werner Meyer, director of Blaupunkt, the Bosch radio...
...intelligent reader, that lame dog who often feels the need for help over styles, will find many familiar Lowell mannerisms. Among them: the dazzling fast shuffle of historical cards from different decks, imperial Rome, Emerson's Boston, Wren's London. There are, as always, several Lowells: Lowell the improper Bostonian, the politically engaged, the scholar, traveler and eclectic New England importer of foreign cultures. Lowell the poet has not only the chameleon's ability to change the color of his verse to fit the subject but that wizard lizard's faculty of independently focusing each...
