...flexibility and experimentation possible under a revised system. Students could attend any of the ten-week terms; without taking a summer vacation, a student could graduate in three years. The academic load might be changed to three courses. Rescheduling and calendar shuffling certainly are not expensive, considering the manifest advantages, and have been proved worthwhile at Dartmouth and Pittsburgh...
...social-consciousness thriller. Author Keith Wheeler, a LIFE associate editor, feelingly probes the grey market in interracial ethics. Like most topical problem novels, Peaceable Lane, a December Book-of-the-Month choice, is on somewhat distant terms with literature, and Breathlessly intimate with today's headlines.

Chesher appealed and, pending a review, he was free to fly. When rescue workers recovered his body from the wreckage, they found...
