...come over and read aloud to us your illegible remarks--we can (officially) read anything and we may be married. Write on both sides of the page--single-blue-book finals look like less work to grade, and win points. This chic, shaded calligraphic script so many are fond of affecting lately is handsome, and is probably worth a good five extra points if you can hack it. But above all, keep us entertained, keep us awake. Be bold, be personal, be witty, be chock full of facts. I'm sure you can do it all without studying...

Unlike many of his less sophisticated predecessors, he will not bow silently to pressure from Washington. "He is ready to be critical of unreasonable demands," says Seizaburo Sato, a political scientist at the University of Tokyo. As Trade Minister in 1970, Miyazawa broke off talks over a textile agreement because he felt the U.S. was demanding too much.
