...MAKING OF THE PRESIDENT 1968, by Theodore H. White. White is just as diligent as he was when recounting the victories of John Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson. But this time his protagonist lacks the flamboyance to fire up White's romantic mind, and as a result, a slight pall hangs over much of the book...

Joseph Califano, former presidential aide to Lyndon Johnson, agreed and noted that the manpower proposal includes a provision for a 10% increase in job-training funds when unemployment hits 4.5% (about 4,000,000 unemployed) for three consecutive months, a level that some experts think could be reached this year.

The four other leading candidates--juniors Fred Mattucci, Dick Manny, and Walter Johnson, and sophomore Ron Suduiko--have but 32 minutes of varisty time among them, and unless backfield coach Loyal Park can make them into a solid unit, Harvard will have trouble where it has rarely experienced it before...
