There are many things which Castro is not, though he if often accused of them. Fidel Castro is not a Communist; he has accepted a few communist ideas, and has fallen for parts of the local communist line, but by no stretch of the definition is he a Communist. Fidel Castro is not merely an incompetent guerilla leader; though his executive abilities are questionable he works harder than almost any other chief of state in the world. Fidel Castro is not a god; Cuba's popular magazine, Bohemia, printed a sketch of him, brows furrowed, eyes cast upward, with...
...Simone Signoret as his worldly and dispirited mentor. Both make the most of their important relationship, reacting to each other with a sensitivity that escapes the impersonality of the screen. Their love affair seems dramatically as well as thematically plausible. Heather Sears, cast as the daughter of the local power, employs her bland manner with purpose. Her pleasant, but empty face, and her unobtrusiveness, admirably heighten her own meaningless relationship to Harvey.

Harvard's response to this issue has been marked by its lack of fervor and action. That this apparent anomaly should exist suggests a reproachable peculiarity of the Harvard community and a breach...
...tape recorder, an empty store front, and about 20 tough local adolescents form the nucleus of a novel University experiment in human behavior. "Street Corner Research," a project headed by Charles W. Slack, assistant professor of Clinical Psychology, has taken over a closed store at the corner of Bow St. and Massachusetts Ave. to study the problem of juvenile delinquency...
