...Douglas, vacationing near Goose Prairie, Wash., who first sent agley the Army's well-laid plans for dispatching reluctant reservists off to war. Douglas ordered the Pentagon to delay the departure to Viet Nam of 113 reservists attached to a supply company stationed at Fort Meade, Md. The group asked the full court to rule on the President's constitutional right to call them up in the first place. They will now remain in the U.S. until next month, when the court will determine whether it wants to hear their case...
Though $600,000 in campaign bills are still to be paid, Eugene McCarthy appeared relaxed and unworried while vacationing on the French Riviera last week.

A group of radical-minded students holding a spirited open forum was startled to see Acting President Andrew Cordier amble over to the meeting. He addressed it informally and spoke of building a "dynamic, forward-looking campus" on "a policy of human relationships." When a few students began to heckle him, they were silenced by others. Rudd and his fellow radicals are still determined to provoke a confrontation, but it may be, as one senior put it, that "the revolution will have to wait for spring. Most people want...
