...Hyland is nothing less than candid. He spells out the strategy for us. "The Weatherman attack on the CFIA," he writes, "made the subsequent Guided Tour much more palatable." On that occasion, rudeness and insolence toward teachers, contemptuous flouting of the rights of fellow students, disorderly and potentially dangerous behavior-all things that would have been severely and properly punished-suddenly became acceptable. The victims of this abuse found solace in the thought that it could have been worse; and they were joined in this by their colleagues, who found further comfort in the hope or assumption that this kind...
...prepared him for his current troubles. Born and reared only a few doors from the two-acre estate he now occupies, he attended nearby Furman University; one of its founders was his great-great-grandfather. His proper manner and the fact that he neither smoked nor drank led some fellow students to call him "the clean-clean boy." Upon graduation from Harvard Law School, Haynsworth returned to Greenville to join his family's law firm. Except for World War II Navy service in Charleston and San Diego, he has lived in Greenville since...

...reach the plate and put the Orioles behind, three games to one. In the final game the Oriole pitcher and first baseman conspired to commit two errors on a single play (shades of Marvelous!) to permit the last, poetic Met run to score. The Oriole manager, a stocky fellow named Weaver, even began to look and act like a funny old fellow named Casey Stengel, who used to run the Mets. During the fourth game, in a transport of fury, Weaver was banished from the field. But nothing could hide the awful fact that the Oriole power had failed. Their...
Flirting with Recession. The question that bothers some fellow economists is whether Burns will demonstrate the necessary flexibility and adopt an expansionary policy at the right time. His record in that respect is mixed. Intellectually, Burns recognizes the Government's obligation to maintain prosperity. As chairman of President Eisenhower's Council of Economic Advisers from 1953 to 1956, he agreed to increases in Government spending and in the credit supply that his successor, Saulnier, thought were too expansionist. In early 1960, he advised Nixon, then Vice President, that federal spending should be increased and credit eased to head...
