...mostly just above poverty. The government may well keep the lid on for many more years or even decades. As one white editor says, "Soweto riots could just become an annual event." And yet the present situation-a continuing white sense of living under siege, a continuing black fever of resentment-cannot go on indefinitely without serious damage to the country. Fear would spread like slow poison (and, among other things, would deter investment from abroad). Sooner or later, the jailed always deform the jailers...
...Villanova, Pa. In 1949, at 19, he was standing on the running board of a car when it swerved into a utility pole. The crash crushed the young man's skull, broke his collarbone and punctured a lung. He was in a coma with a 107° fever and high pulse when doctors decided to cease treatment. A neighbor lent the parents a piece of Neumann's cassock. Soon after they touched Kent with the cloth he began to recover.

This week the county will hold a referendum to decide whether or not to rescind the law.

...middle of the night, a Connecticut housewife, 36, awakes with shaking chills, fever and a splitting headache. Some weeks later, she is so crippled by severe pains in her back, knees and shoulders that she cannot walk without crutches. About the same time, a neighbor's son, 6, develops several large reddish rings on his skin. His temperature rises, and within days a swelling in the boy's left knee leaves him virtually immobilized. A short distance away, a robust man, 26, suddenly finds himself battling a nagging sore throat, a stiff neck and total fatigue. Before long...
