...sought to avoid polarization and to capitalize on a "community of purpose." "Something for everyone" is ambitious, but not to be taken lightly. Worth a try? One can recite a veritable litany of negative polarizations which has beset this planet in the last 30 years--Dachau through red-baiting; "flower children" through the movement against the violence of war; the struggle of minorities toward human dignity and now the "war of the sexes" which could be the biggest bag of all since it involves one half the human race vs. the other half. There is no place at this University...

...thrown during his leave of absence from Harvard this past year and a half, shows the widest range in the group, and contains the sole constructed piece (a rectangular slab, darkly glazed). His techniques include glossy enamelware and spartan slip-decorated stoneware; gigantic perfectly thrown jugs and tiny one-flower vases.

But shouts of "Hail to the thief!" and rhythmic clapping from a handful of hecklers in the balcony rattled Nixon. His voice quavered, his hands tightly gripped the flower-bedecked lectern, and he occasionally mispronounced words. Still, cheers drowned out the boos when he said that he had furnished "all the relevant evidence" needed "to get Watergate behind us" and promised "to stay on this job." On Saturday, Nixon opened Expo '74 in Spokane, Wash., where he was welcomed...

...speech therapy class with a friend. Jeffrey Glenn Miller, 20, of Plainview, N.Y., had written on one of his notebooks: Rocky for President in '72. Allison Krause, 19, of Pittsburgh, had come the closest of the four to threatening a Guardsman: a few days before, she'd put a flower in his rifle and told him that flowers were better than bullets...
