TUESDAY, APRIL 23 -- Noon. At the sundial are 500 people ready to follow Mark Rudd (whom they don't particularly like because he always refers to President Kirk as "that shit-head"), into the Low Library administration building to conduct a demonstration against IDA and the gym and test Kirk's anti--indoor demonstration edict.

He has a horror of deficit financing and organized labor; he hews to a hard line abroad. "In Korea, we followed a policy of No Win," he wrote in one of his front-page editorials.
