...French industry will have to face increased competition, and it is believed ill equipped to hold its own. De Gaulle's bills aim at tightening up industry and encouraging mergers, also include profit-sharing provisions for workers. As important as these economic reforms is the Gaullist intent to force center groups sandwiched between the Gaullists and the left in the National Assembly either to make common cause with the Gaullists, or take the blame for defeating the government bill and thus risk new elections...
...College, is exploring more formal ties-much to the concern of the St. Mary's faculty. One informal survey showed that 40% of St. Mary's teachers do not now meet Notre Dame standards, presumably would suffer in any merger.

Sidney Nolan's drawings do not, in general, add much to this excellent book.

In a logical deduction, Dr. Edris Rice-Wray, who conducted the first...
...final picture of the series, a Hitler figure is viewed in the act of self-castration. At least, some critics have him as Hitler. Lasansky declines to identify it. His concern, he says, is not primarily with indicting German Nazis; his larger intent is to remind the younger generation that the human mind and will have a vast and terrifying capacity for brutality. "It could happen again," he believes. "And I don't think the imagination can even conceive of what it would be like...
