...students feel about the idea of coeducational living arrangements? A recent questionnaire undertaken by a joint subcommittee of the Harvard-Radcliffe Policy Committee and the Radcliffe Union of Students indicated that students overwhelmingly favor the idea of coeducational housing. Ninety per cent of the undergraduates polled favored "the idea of optional coeducational living accommodations (by separate floors, entries or suites) in some Harvard and Radcliffe dormitories." The results were even more striking for Radcliffe students--they favored the idea by a margin of over 19 to 1. Another indication of the popularity of coeducational facilities is the overcrowding success...
...coaching staff, but eventually he got his way. The players loved Allen; in the past two seasons they won 21 games, lost four and tied three. The fans loved Allen too, but Danny was unhappy. For one thing, Allen, the son of a factory worker, had a quaint idea that the fun of football was winning. For another thing, people were beginning to refer to Danny's team as George's team. Back at the Bel-Air, Danny told his pals that the way Coach Allen drove the players at practice and worked 18 hours a day "takes...
Despite that, Agnelli has shown that he knows how to run an auto company, although he concedes that "I haven't the slightest idea how to build a car." Unhappy about some deadwood that had piled up under Valletta, Agnelli imposed a U.S.-style rule of retirement at 65 and promoted much younger men.

Fiat's managers bring him only major decisions, but on those, Agnelli is the ultimate authority. Under...
Rough Challenge. The idea originated with a husband-wife team, Dr. Vincent P. Dole, a specialist in metabolic research at Rockefeller University, and Dr. Marie Nyswander, a psychiatrist. As a substitute for heroin, which may cost the addict $50 a day and is virtually certain to lead him to crime, they hit upon methadone. It is a synthetic painkiller, widely prescribed for cancer patients and for people who have undergone surgery. Such prescriptions are not renewable, since it is undeniably addicting. But physical dependence on methadone is less stubborn than that on heroin or other opium derivatives, and patients...
These familiar pleas are backed with solid statistical indications that Harvard and Radcliffe students really want the change. Ninety per cent of the undergraduates polled by the HPC favored the idea of optional coed living accommodations and almost half the Harvard students as well as 60 per cent of the Cliffies said they were willing to pack their bags and move next term. The crowds that gather for lunch every day at Lehman Hall and the huge number of Harvard students who make the trek to Hilles each night confirm just how eager students here are for informal coeducational contacts...
