Biggest pocket is the Electrical Trades Union, whose 239,334 members are controlled by Communist President Frank Foulkes and Communist General Secretary Frank Haxell. And the opening session of the goth annual meeting of the T.U.C. last week found the Red electricians in a peculiarly vulnerable position: although 38-year-old E.T.U. Member Leslie Cannon had been elected a delegate to the congress by the union's membership, Frank Foulkes and "Squeaky" Haxell had refused to accredit him because he had quit the Communist Party in disgust over Russian repression of the Hungarian revolution.

...Oppenheimer, who had devoured so much more learning than the typical American Gothic freshman, consider himself, of all people, a Goth? Why did this young man, apparently quivering with life, bless Harvard for bringing him "almost alive"? Did learning somehow cut him off from life instead of doing its normal job of bringing him closer to it? If so, that was not because Oppenheimer concentrated on technical studies.
