...these people, I quote the words that I heard exactly three years ago. They went like this: 'Our national strategy, formed upon a bipartisan basis, was to hold the frontiers of freedom by our own main strength until the depleted nations of Europe and Japan could find their feet and begin to share responsibility for the common defense of freedom. Irresponsible partisanship on matters of national interest is not only bad policy: it is bad politics.'" Concluded Scott: "Those are the words of the man who was then and is now the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations...
Rupert Crittenden, who has heard them testify in municipal court over the past five years, was moved to an expression of praise that is rare when courts talk about cops. "They present their cases cleanly and they're one hundred percent honest. I've seen them lose cases because they didn't want to fudge...
...youngsters often misuse are spoken correctly, then mimicked by the students. In Philadelphia, Temple University helped 160 Negro girls speak better to qualify for secretarial jobs.

To the forty students denied scholarships next year because they missed a deadline they'd never heard of, Phelps may seem rigourous beyond necessity. But Harvard is surely better off not coddling such flagrant calender-scoffers. Send them to Vietnam or M.I.T. As an alumnus, I sympathize with Dean Phelps' firm campaign to keep Harvard free of time-table Schlamperei and the crypto-inverts who practice...
