Abrasive Eloquence. Another Panther was having his problems with the law last week. The Panthers' "minister of information," Author Eldridge Cleaver (Soul on Ice), was ordered back to prison for violating his parole from an assault conviction. Cleaver became involved last April in a firefight during which the Panthers' 17-year-old treasurer was shot by Oakland policemen. Cleaver himself was wounded. As a result, his parole was revoked, and he was accused of assault with intent to commit murder. A lower court later freed him, ruling that Cleaver was being held because of his extremist political opinions...
...candidate for the antiwar Peace and Freedom Party. He is also scheduled to appear as a guest lecturer at the University of California's Berkeley campus, an appointment that stirred angry protests from the state's political establishment. For the Panthers, with two of their leaders on ice, it was a time of barely throttled fury...

He is also the abrasively articulate "Minister of Information" for the Black Panther movement. Thus Cleaver seemed to be an imaginative choice to appear as an unpaid guest lecturer in Social Analysis 139X, an experimental course in race relations which is being conducted this semester...
...major hitch has been temperature. Aerial "seeding" with crystals of dry ice can be used easily enough to turn fog into snow when the water droplets are at temperatures below freezing. That technique is regularly used at 21 major U.S. airports. But such "cold" fog accounts for only 5% of airport shutdowns in the continental U.S. The rest are caused by fog at temperatures above freezing, which until now could only be dispelled by chemicals that corroded metals, destroyed plant life or simply cost too much...
