Even the up-and-comers among video games were not spared. The stock of Coleco Industries Inc., which has a hit cartridge called Donkey Kong and a new console, ColecoVision, fell almost nine points in two days. Declared President Arnold Greenberg: "This is an inevitable initial reaction when the largest company in the industry says it has had disappointments. Some of the newer companies like us have really taken a large share away from Atari and Mattel." Coleco, based in Hartford, Conn., expects its sales to jump 180% this year, to $500 million...
...court last week, the prosecution laid out an impressive case. Prosecutor Theodore Greenberg elicited the most damaging testimony from Wilson's former associates. His girlfriend and manager of his Geneva office, Roberta Barnes-code-named "Wonder Woman" in the operation-said that Wilson did send the U.S. Government information about Libyan plans to build an atomic bomb, but only after he was already under indictment.

Minority groups chose him last spring to write a letter explaining the boycott to Greenberg and Chambers. Law School Dean James Vorenberg sent a copy of that letter, along with a draft containing his own anti-boycott stance, to law students over the summer. The national media also obtained copies of the letter and quoted from it in articles about the boycott, most of which criticized the boycotting student for what one columnist called "banal ethnocenricism...
...says the liberal civil rights establishment--and he counts Chambers and Greenberg among its members--is pushing busing policies on whites and Blacks that neither of them want. "It we could get the civil rights establishment to pay as much attention to getting quality education for everyone as it has paid to these elaborate and unsuccessful busing plans, I think it would be a step forward for everybody," Kenyatta says...
