...doubtful that anyone could prove Yale had any fewer fights with "townies" or recruited any football players from this yearly early-season project, but the advantages in long-term public relations are obvious.

...compulsory federal plan still seems a long way off, but it would be a shame to allow lack of cohesion to destroy the local administrative machinery of Blue Cross, Blue Shield, and their counterparts, if a national superstructure could be set up to deal with the problems of nation-wide coverage. Such supplementary programs as Connecticut's C.M.S. program to cover non-hospital medical expenses for families earning less than $7000 could be expanded similarly. One can only regret that voluntary insurance plans have taken so long to find out that Americans will take any steps necessary to avoid paying...
