...Poles, as usual, are only following Moscow's lead. Soviet Premier Aleksei Kosygin last week received the West German ambassador in Moscow for the first time in more than a year. Kosygin also had a long and friendly talk in the Kremlin with an important political visitor from West Germany. He was Walter Scheel, the leader of the third-place Free Democratic Party.

Old activists like Mark Coldridge have quit fighting. His only political activity is to keep two huge world maps, one charting wars and riots, the other showing stockpiles of nuclear, chemical and bacteriological...
...good school, given all the appurtenances necessary for existence at such a place. (A picture of his college room leaps into mind so readily: KLH, chianti bottle with candle drippings, and all.) He comes home, realizes just what sort of a disgusting life his parents and their friends lead, and is in a quasi-cynical sort or existential agony about it all for several reels of film...
