...convention-going, after sex and baseball.) The play is a propaganda comedy about non-conformity, hypocrisy and group-ism. It is an inept concoction of situational cliches, overworn ideas and stereotyped characters. There is the sour corporation president, the xenophobic grande dame, the iconoclastic philosophy professor, the ambitious junior executive, and the young wife who upsets everything by refusing to be a lickspittle. The structure is creaky, and the turns of the plot wholly predictable. Celeste Holm did her best as the young wife, but she was just wasting her time...
...college productions will be attempts to show visually two of the most basic theories of physical chemistry-the concept of molecular vibration: taught by Nobel Prizewinner Linus Pauling, and famed Chemist Henry Eyring's study of reaction kinetics. The idea that such theories, normally discussed in detail in junior-year college chemistry, might be presented in films belongs to Dr. Thomas Jones of the National Science Foundation, who conceived the project as a Brussels Fair exhibit. But "the U.S. Government is very poor," Chemist Eyring observes pointedly, and there was no federal financing to be had. Eventually 83-year...
Clyde Martin Reed Jr., 44, seemed shy and diffident to Kansas Republicans who remembered his outgoing and handsome father, the late crusading editor (Parsons Sun), able Governor (1929-31) and well-known U.S. Senator (1939-49).

Last week, by a vote...
Noncom's War. Last April, Bigeard's enemies succeeded in getting him assigned to command a special school designed to train junior officers in "revolutionary warfare." Unlike many other paratroop officers, he stood aloof from the army coup of last May, earned the further dislike of the balcony generals and colonels of Algiers by scornfully condemning their coup ("The army, instead of waging war, is indulging in politics"). And early this month, when Paris Presse's Reporter Jean Larteguy visited Bigeard's school in search of material for a series on "the sickness of the French...
...clearly; he may not just sit back and take notes. At the end of the term the tutor writes a report on his tutee, which from now on will be fairly strongly weighted in a deciding his Honors candidacy. This sort of relationship continues in Sophomore tutorial and Junior tutorial, although some departments will continue to have students tutored in groups; in Senior year, every Honors candidate meets individually with a tutor, under whose guidance he writes a thesis...
