Perhaps Chicago's example cannot be applied universally. The school has a long tradition of intellectual discussion that made the vast majority of students unwilling to join the sit-in. Most of its students are in graduate and professional courses, are less subject to undergraduate enthusiasms. Levi has relegated increasing responsibility for the university's conduct to the faculty, by so doing has engaged the support of most professors. And Levi has earned ample respect by years of brilliant scholarship, educational reform and urban involvement. But his example could well be studied by other college administrators...
DeBakey, 60, a pioneering open-heart surgeon, is president of the Baylor University College of Medicine; Cooley, 49, is a member of the faculty. The two Texans have scrupulously avoided public battles, but their subordinates have been less inhibited. Those loyal to DeBakey, for example, have fostered the impression that Cooley has performed some of his 20 heart transplants prematurely. Cooley's lieutenants, on the other hand, dismiss this as professional jealousy; they point out that Cooley performed his first transplant three months before DeBakey did. DeBakey's associates also expressed concern about the purely experimental status...
...know whether my dance will live," Martha Graham once said. "This is not my concern.

Not only is she beginning to film some of them for posterity, but a number of less familiar pieces have been revised and restored to her recent repertory as well...
...from a desire to expand the stylized, confining vocabulary of ballet, which had been worked out largely as a series of infinite variations on two basic motions, the walk and the bow. To Graham, any human movement was a dancer's possibility, the fall to the floor no less than the leap into the air. She brought the alphabet forward from A and B all the way to Z. She emerged when Sigmund Freud was a major cultural hero. Partly as a result of his influence, she developed a symbolism that replaced ballet's traditional boy-meets-girl...
...assiduously than Wyman-Kuchel, the California firm of former Republican Senator Thomas Kuchel. Last week Senior Partner Eugene Wyman himself squired Sanders to lunch at The Bistro, a modish Beverly Hills restaurant. They had hardly looked at the menu when some of Wyman-Ku-chel's more or less celebrated clients just happened to stop by the table for a drink. Before finishing a main course of broiled breaded crab legs, Sanders had a chance to chat with Comedian Milton Berle, as well as Actresses Jill St.John and Janet Leigh...
