...Cross plane. Right from the beginning we told all those who broke into our airspace that they were doing so at their own risk. Unfortunately, because of the limitations of our air force, we were not in a position to seal off the air completely. It was the Joint Church Aid group that once said: "We don't care what you say. We're not going to obey your instructions to respect territorial airspace." They told us that if we dared shoot down one of their aircraft, world opinion would be against us.

...Intensive Summer Studies Program, begun in 1966, which brings 70 students from Southern, predominantly Negro colleges to Cambridge for the summer. The students take one regular summer course, and also a special tutorial. (The program is a joint venture with Yale and Columbia, which also take a similar number of the students each summer...

An alternative might be a joint congressional committee. Such a body might also report periodically on the levels of lethal agents being stockpiled, as well as the safety of their storage and transportation. It is past time for the Pentagon to acknowledge that there are legitimate doubts about chemical and biological weapons...

Still, its decelerated rhythms and nostalgic photography provide a rare glimpse of that era when good and evil were different colors and student protest was a whispered grievance in a corridor...
...embittered horseplayer recently remarked, "If they raced rats and placed Tote machines in Madison Square Garden, they could fill the joint with suckers every night." He was getting at a basic truth about the fascination of gambling. But what clearly eluded him-and what Sam Toperoff conveys with love in this oddly winning novelistic memoir-is the peculiar delight, the exquisite angst that horses (and wagering on them) give a really dedicated race-goer...
