...spite of these statements-which no other liberal Russian writer has made -some specialists feel that the present assault on Evtushenko is an exercise in overkill. "Why pick on Evtushenko?" asks Wayne State University's Vera Dunham, a leading specialist in Russian poetry. "He has never done anyone any real harm. It would make more sense to denounce the men actually responsible for putting Russian writers on trial, and examine the society that made Evtushenko what he is-a brash conformist and rather uncultured Soviet young man." Professor Dunham believes that his critics have no right to expect Evtushenko...
...Cathedral. The band moved up from the British pop underground early this year, soon captivated a following in Britain that combines the commercial weight of a mass audience with the intensity of an avant-garde cult. "I feel like I'm in a cathedral," said one awed fan at a performance. The last two of their four LPs have been top-ten bestsellers, and their concert tours sell out from London to Liverpool...
Lillian Hellman's rebuke to George Kennan after he bemoaned the irresponsibility and nihilism of youth had the same effect.

The military instructors, in their own fields, have professional education and experience comparable to most other faculty members in their respective fields. My point here is not whether they are justified. If the University and similar institutions feel otherwise...
While much of the blame must go to the performer, I feel most of the responsibility for this vacuum belongs to the director. He evidently has not bothered in the least to get anything more than a shell of a character from his actor. We get waving hands for nervousness; pained looks for sorrow, moody line readings for introspection. With no central character around, we must work too hard to find out what Horovitz is talking about. Finally we give up and watch the proceedings as we would a Sid Caesar sketch. While some of the laughs are there...
