Boyle's testimony cracked under Sprague's 88-minute crossexamination. Despite Boyle's frequent pleas of poor memory, the prosecutor repeatedly trapped him. He denied sending Turn-blazer a transcript of a U.M.W. meeting outlining a phony alibi for union officials linked with the murder. Sprague asked why FBI agents had found Boyle's fingerprints on the document. The courtroom stirred at the news, which Sprague had dramatically withheld until Boyle's testimony...
...Labor Party is a moral crusade or it is nothing." Those noble words came back to haunt Britain's Prime Minister last week as a public furor continued over newspaper reports that two close associates-his longtime secretary, Marcia Williams, and her brother Anthony Field, Wilson's frequent golfing partner and onetime office manager-had profited in a land speculation deal (TIME, April 15). There was nothing illegal about it, and Wilson himself was not involved. But many Britons found it unseemly TOPIX that the charge of land speculation should be raised against intimate colleagues...
...ninth grade boys (13-and 14-year-olds) said that they had drunk some kind of alcoholic beverage 50 or more tunes in the past year; in 1973 the figure had jumped to 23%.

In preparation for that three- to five-day, linked-up swing round the earth, Russian space technicians and cosmonauts are frequent visitors to NASA these days. Though the docking of superpower space travelers will doubtless provide a compelling symbol of peaceful cooperation between nations, space buffs are inclined to view it as a political rather than a piloting event...
During this period, Faculty meetings became more frequent and well-attended than they had been for years. Back in the placid fifties, the Faculty always met in the relatively cozy Faculty room in University Hall and sometimes had as few as three or four meetings a year. In early 1969, the meetings were often held once a week or, just after the Strike, almost every day--and the Faculty usually could no longer fit into University Hall. By the spring of 1969, they were meeting in the Loeb Drama Center...
