Thorns in the Side. Both brothers long been thorns in the sides of religious superiors. In 1965 Dan was briefly banished to Latin America for helping to organize an antiwar group called Clergy Concerned About Viet Nam, and earlier this year undertook an unauthorized trip to Hanoi.

Lately, the idea has won enthusiasm in the ghettos.
