...could be easily dismissed with some smug generalization about students hurting only themselves. It is not only a force which cramps the exercise of her liberal educational doctrine, freedom of the student, unlimited cuts, non-recording of attendance, and which will force her to retreat. It is also a frontal attack on her worth as an educational institution, an annihilation of her standards until they are shadowy and farcical...
...frontal advance on Japanese entrenched positions was ordered by General Li Tsung-jen, but rather a series of sweeping side attacks, each more intense than the other, each spaced to give the Japanese scant time to recuperate from the last. The Chinese general hoped by these tactics to wear down the Japanese forces so that a general retreat would be ordered...
This most professional drive was executed by having Rightist General Garcia Escamez hotly engage a large Leftist defending force in frontal attack, while Rightist Generals Garcia Valino and Aranda swept around the Leftists' wings, met behind them and then swept on toward the Mediterranean in a 16-mile-wide offensive. Twenty miles of coast, from the outskirts of San Carlos de la Rápita to Peñiscola were in Rightist hands by week...

At last reports the Japanese had dug in at Yihsien, 20 miles to the rear, where they were attempting to consolidate their forces in the area.

...picture than that provided by Quantum Theory. Many years ago Einstein said he would devote the rest of his life to the research for a Unified Field Theory which would comprehend all natural phenomena. He knows that such a fantastically ambitious goal will never be reached by a straight frontal attack. He has been probing around it, looking for avenues of approach, circuitously groping toward unity. Nearly a decade ago he actually announced a Unified Field Theory, but discarded it when flaws were detected. Later he found a way to handle particles as bridges connecting two contiguous "sheets" of space...
