...silences on the Hill are also significant. Senate Republican Leader Hugh Scott, who a few weeks ago was proclaiming Nixon's innocence, is in anguish. His voice in defense of the President is muted. Friends say that he now believes it is inevitable that Nixon will be impeached. G.O.P. Whip Robert Griffin has been a troubled man for months. Some of his colleagues would not be surprised to see him add his voice to the rising chorus for resignation...
...also undertook investigative reporting with a gravity of purpose unusual for a college paper. while excesses were sometimes committed, we, the readers, always knew that objective reporting and representative editorializing on major issues were the goals and, usually, the reality. The recent spate of articles on Prof. Kiely and Hugh Berryman have typified an inexplicable decline in what had augured to be an emerging Crimson tradition of high journalistic standards. This deterioration is inexplicable because many of the questions which stimulated discussion five years ago still exist: Harvard's involvement with its community and its government the goals...
...Supporters. An additional problem for the President is that any White House attempt to stonewall the Rodino committee by denying access to any further evidence runs the risk of alienating two of Nixon's most helpful supporters: Vice President Gerald Ford and Republican Senate Leader Hugh Scott.

But Ford irked Nixon's staff by declaring...
This bright circus of a production began this winter at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and it is even better on Broadway. Lillian Hellman's book for the 1956 Broadway production, which had a troubled history, was scrapped in favor of a faster and frothier new version by Hugh Wheeler, with Stephen Sondheim contributing a few new lyrics to the originals by Poet Richard Wilbur. What remains the same, of course, is Leonard Bernstein's restless, delightful score, one of the best ever written for the musical stage. It has a sort of light intellectual jump...
...ACTIONS of Professor Robert J. Kiely in obtaining appointments for a close friend are politically significant and philosophically disturbing. Through use of his influence as master of Adams House, professor of English and dean for undergraduate education, Kiely got the Rev. Hugh G. Berryman, whom he describes as a "good, close friend," three teaching and advising jobs here and tried unsuccessfully to get him a fourth. In each case, it is clear that Kiely's connections were the crucial factor in Berryman's appointments--the authorities formally charged with making the appointments all agree on this...
