Sadder but presumably wiser, Illinois' freshman Senator Charles Percy last week wrote to three Chicago friends: "It was a mistake on my part not to realize that your well-intentioned desire to help would be subject to misunderstanding and misinterpretation." With that, Chuck dissolved the controversial "Percy Group," a six-month-old fund-raising campaign intended to help the Senator defray his considerable office expenses...
...public. Up in the Vermont hills a lot of intensive training goes on among the students who elect Dance as their major. Daily classes in ballet and modern dance, prolonged study of choreography and performing and among the students, fiercely professional devotion, become routine. The happy result is a group of young dancers who know what they're up to. Every other year during the winter term the best of the Bennington dancers set out on a dance tour of the east coast to show their stuff...
...audience at the Loeb last Friday and Saturday got its money's worth. The group is interesting to watch with something sympathetic and appealing about them; they are young, they move well, they perform with confidence and spirit.

There is not at Harvard "the small group"--as Pusey puts it--"bent on disruption." There are a great many students who share a sense of hurt that their country is waging a war for which they see no justification. Their frustration that it goes on is deepening. They have the greatest hope for what this country could do if it would, but many may instead be called to fight its war in Vietnam in less than a year. It should not surprise Pusey that they may occasionally act unwisely, and that even their unwise actions will draw the sympathy...
