While crowds of British vacationers gaped, the airplane came in at 1,200 ft., slowed to 120 m.p.h. Out popped an unlikely parachutist: Prince Charles, in wet suit, crash helmet and goggles, equipped with a whistle and a smoke flare in case he got lost. Not bloody likely. Standing by, according to the London Times, were "enough assault craft to have assaulted half of southern England."

...football quarterback, views huddles as T groups and wears his helmet to mixers so the girls will know who he is. Megaphone Mark, the campus radical, has to rehearse the spontaneous outrage that he expects to deliver at his first press conference. Such characters appear in Doonesbury, a comic strip of campus life that began in the Yale Daily News in 1968, and is now syndicated in 125 papers, from the Washington Post to the San Francisco Chronicle. This week American Heritage Press will publish an anthology...
