Your very interesting front-page article, in the issue of Saturday, March 18, on "University Fears Laws Limiting Computer Use" was as incomplete as it was interesting. It gave only one part of the story and represented only a fraction of the University. The headline would have been more accurate if you had said "Some University Officials Fear Laws Limiting Computer...
...night have demolished Courier cars; business managers have thrown up their hands at the Courier'S book-keeping-by-memory system and stalked out of its two-room headquarters in a downtown Montgomery office building, never to return. But while steadily losing money (advertising and sales pay only a fraction of its $4,000-a-month budget; the rest comes from private donations and foundation grants), it has been making friends and influencing politics...
...Gaulle has maintained more than just the political power of previous years. To a large extent his voting strength is undiminished. Even though he won many more seats in 1962, de Gaulle's popular vote was within a small fraction of the 37.5 per cent he received last week.

...spleens and lymph nodes are removed from human cadavers, and the extract is injected into horses. The horses' rejection mechanism goes to work and makes particles active against the human lymphocytes. The horses are later bled, antilymphocyte serum is extracted, and may be further refined to a globulin fraction. At the University of Colorado, a team headed by Dr. Thomas Starzl has performed 19 successful transplants since last June; given antilymphocyte globulin, the patients have got along well on sharply reduced doses of azathioprine and prednisone...
Inadmissible Evidence. Skeptics may well ask: Is prejudicial reporting really a problem? After all, only about 10% of U.S. criminal defendants plead not guilty and stand trial. Only a fraction get into the newspapers: from 1955 to 1965, U.S. papers devoted only 3% of their space to crime news. Americans believe that publicity is vital to justice; the press has often dug up evidence that exonerated as well as implicated defendants. Inflammatory reporting is on the wane. Even if it recurs, the Supreme Court's Sheppard decision ordered trial judges to combat it with long available devices. They should...
