There are some areas where the Museum, whether for good or ill, has what Coolidge terms, "more unique responsibilities." One is illustrated by the fact that the Graduate School of Design trains a frighteningly large percentage, one-half, of all the professionals--the art historians, professors, and museum people--working in the field of Fine Arts in the United States. Several other graduate schools--New York University, for example--are currently matching Harvard in quality, but fall far below in quanity. Coolidge hopes that others will come into the field to lessen the University's burden. "There is nothing...
...week's end CBS pre-empted Omnibus' hour and a half to present Out of Darkness. Filmed in cooperation with the American Psychiatric Association and the National Association for Mental Health, Darkness was designed to show the public what can now be done to cure mental ill ness, and as a full-scale attack on the national apathy that allots no more than an average of $2.80 a day for the care, housing and medical treatment of the 750,000 patients in U.S. mental hospitals...
...health officers swung into action, checking turkey handlers for signs of ornithosis infection,* they found an alarmingly high rate of human illness. By last week they had recorded 60 suspected cases (though some could prove to be viral pneumonia). The farms turned up only seven cases of apparent ornithosis.

Such incidents only hint at the deeper ill in the University Health Service-scattering of facilities. Located in the Hygiene Building, Stillman, and six other spots, the department does not have a center, convenient to the Yard, from which all of its services can operate. Thus, the Hygiene Building's 5 p.m. closing forces sick students to make a night-time trek to Stillman. During last Monday's storm the building closed at 2:30 p.m. and posted a notice directing emergency cases through snow, ice and wind to Stillman...
...holding a scholarship is supported in a state little short of luxury, forced to earn only $300 a summer, and take either a $300 job or loan during the academic year. When other deserving students are forced to earn or borrow their entire upkeep, it seems the College can ill-afford such generosity. While raising the amount of work and loans required of scholarship students would undoubtedly hurt their economic and intellectual status, the harm done would hardly be comparable to the benefits given the Group V or VI student who could receive at least partial scholarship...
