Even those retained to work on the new, enlarged morning Herald (to be called the Boston Herald-Traveler) aren't too happy. Despite Akerson's rousing statements about the wonderful possibilities for the new hybrid, many of them fear that the Herald will soon follow the Traveler's steps. This isn't too likely since the Herald, which carries the New York' Times news dispatches, is a fairly solid and well-liked paper.

In a report using words that it had once rejected vehemently, it declared that the shortage of doctors is reaching "alarming proportions," and called...
...often. He cracks under the strain, rages at the boys, warns the loose-lipped girls, "Nobody likes a slut for long." He throws away the books, begins discussing such forbidden subjects as sex and rebellion. The shock treatment works. The class regards him with a mixture of awe and fear, begins to call him "Sir." One of the girls (Judy Geeson) falls in love with him, and one of the boys challenges him to a boxing match. The boy loses, gaining Poitier the final measure of respect. By the time that Poitier receives a job offer from a Midlands factory...
