...Stanford University authorities struggled with these questions last fall during their protracted investigation of radical Professor of Literature H. Bruce Franklin; they concluded that he had "urged others to violence" during an outbreak of student demonstrations, and so they dismissed him (TIME, Jan. 17). Last week they had to deal with the no less touchy case of William Shockley, 62, a Nobel prizewinner and distinguished professor of engineering science. Once again, they decided that academic freedom must have limits...

She beat Jan Falk of Barnard in the first round, 7-6, 6-1, and in a three hour second-round match, she upset fourth-seeded Julia Barash of Cornell, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3.

...level of violence soared, pessimists feared that McCann's death might prove to be a milestone like Jan. 30, when 13 Catholics at a demonstration were killed by British troops. "Bloody Sunday" fueled the winter's worst rash of bombings and eventually led the British to impose direct rule. Reporting last week on his inquiry into that sorry episode, Britain's Lord Chief Justice Lord Widgery blamed the Catholic civil rights demonstrators for creating a "highly dangerous situation" with their illegal march, and some of the troops for action that "bordered on the reckless." But he judged...
