...question is where to look, and how? Furtive, sideways glances lend a guilty, not to say downright criminal, flavor to the sport; besides, they are unrewarding. A clear-eyed body stare can be misinterpreted. Sweeping the scene like a radar antenna is not a bad approach provided that the sweeper does not mind being pegged as slightly insane. A really sharp spectator will look the girl straight in the eye and natter on into the night about urban renewal, air pollution and go-go mutual funds.

In short, says Breger, "if something comes up in your present life that makes you anxious, during your...

This Israel is not prepared to do without a genuine settlement negotiated directly with the Arabs...
Moreover, it is always an ecstatic pleasure to see art forms (in this case, the poster) lend itself so well to the practical needs of the community in terms of communication and education. What is appealing about the medium of the strike posters is their personal message from a group of unassuming striking people to a larger group of undecided Harvard people. The posters try to reach people, not direct them. They are tacked on trees and plastered on walls, not pinned to bulletin boards. (They are, in fact, ripped down by "officials...
