...article concerning Sunday afternoon's procession about Quincy House was inaccurate. The ceremony which included the exorcism was in celebration of the accession of Charles W. Dunn to the Mastership of Quincy House. The Lowell House Honor Guard was invited because Master Dunn is a former associate of Lowell House.

The Americans were out on their own, looking for kills...
...some great secret upheaval going on in Red China? The editorial in the party journal, Red Flag, certainly had a bloodthirsty ring. "A death struggle between the bourgeoisie to restore capitalism and the proletariat" is taking place, warned Red Flag, calling on the people of Red China to guard against a "counterrevolutionary" uprising of the 1956 Hungarian variety.
