...Viet Nam, and presumably more will follow. ROTC is being reduced in status at some schools. Students in many places are gaining a stronger voice in university affairs. Yet to many young people, the pace of change is too slow. The war, the draft, racial tension and poverty still linger. Each class of incoming freshmen in recent years has been more militant than the last; this year's is expected to be no different...
...point not explained in any statement is how the two men?after undergoing the experience Kennedy describes?could return to the small group and arouse no curiosity. Kennedy says only that he instructed them "not to alarm Mary Jo's friends." As it is, the suspicion is bound to linger that the only reason the two men did not call the police is that they were afraid that Kennedy was in no shape to undergo breath or other tests for alcohol.

They laid railroads and built 133 hospitals, constructed ports and power plants, at one point claimed to be opening a school classroom a day. But the roads led mainly to French industries, and the schools served mostly French children. Independence came in 1956. Now, under hard-working King Hassan II, Moroccans are still poor, but don't whine about it, and show no complex of inferiority. The nation is Arabic, but it permits full freedom of religion...
