...page circular detailing his case, Humes dismisses the felony counts pending against him in New Jersey as "trumped-up charges," as one item in "the repertoire of the campaign to diseredit" him as a serious researcher.

...quick settlement, the I.L.A. threatens to extend the strike to other types of vessels besides container ships. Oil tankers, which haul the nation's biggest import, would not be affected (no longshore labor is required to unload them), but the bulk carriers that haul grain, a huge export item, out of New Orleans and other Gulf Coast ports would be stopped.

Until an operation several years ago left him quite frail, Partridge spent his days in carrel K-1 of the British Museum Library, reading everything from pulp novels to plays (consuming "about 80% of all comedies written in English between 1530 and 1970" for his latest work). In the tradition...
...item placed on the agenda for today's meeting at the last minute concerns the hours of the Indoor Athletic Building (IAB). In the wake of student protests against the weekend closing of the IAB, administrators last week agreed to open the facility on weekends. Now administrators say the building will remain open on weekends so long as at least 20 students use it each weekend day. CHUL members will want accounting of the costs of weekend use, and will discuss other aspects of recreational athletics...
