...trained physicist indifferent to expensive traditions, he coldly reduces problems to charts and graphs, is described by an aide as "the sort of battle commander who can make a careful assessment of the casualties needed to win and then go off to a peaceful lunch." He has already raised fares on heavily traveled commuter runs and proposed to scuttle lightly traveled ones. He wants to close 24 obsolescent repair shops (which would eliminate 18,000 jobs), also intends to speed up freight schedules and give major companies their own freight cars in what he calls "the livery of their...
Acting as administrative heads of the Houses, the Masters have been less successful. Appointments of specific faculty associates have been made, but these associates have been available only on a limited basis. In South House few of the associates are around much. In East House several associates eat lunch once a week in the dorms. In North House, only two young and single associates eat lunch often in the dorms, and they are always surrounded by 'Cliffies...
...Plans for the fourth House include faculty units along Garden Street, and propinquity to Radcliffe will make visiting less of an effort.

He has put top military men under house arrest, is surrounded by 200 of Hussein's Jordanian guards, dressed in Saudi uniforms, because he considers them more reliable than his own Saudis. His air force has been grounded since September, when seven pilots...
...many men in Harvard College, this new plan for the University, which envisages such cost-free benefits as dinner in the airy splendor of Kresge Hall or lunch in a friend's House, contains, alas, one inherent blot. Radcliffe's girls are also members of the University, and they too could eat in the Houses at will; escaping the clutches of Messrs. Hazen and Albiani, they would invade the precincts of maledom and put an end to unfettered, masculine repartee...
