...Thompson, Hobsbawm and some others have turned attention to the "people at the bottom." They do not treat working people, peasants, or the "lower classes" as a necessary and incumbent labor force or as the passive victims of prevailing policy. Instead, they are engaged in exploring the varied and manifold historical responses of the people at the bottom to their own condition, the political acts and cultural expressions of the "losers" in history. Escaping the mute parochialism and indifference of many historians, they realize that causes which they portray and analyze that were lost in Europe and in the United...
Professor Derrick Bell's letter in May 21st Crimson is as ignorant as it is pathetic. Its ignorance is manifold: First, none of my comments and analysis on the dysfunctional aspects of the black separatist lifestyle have ever denied that this behavior was due in part to white racist patterns, and in my Bulletin article (April) I actually state that "such behavior is a conscious countering of white racist exclusivism with black ethnic exclusivism."

This structure, he said, "is irritating and unfortunate to many of us who feel academic institutions should work without a bureaucracy, but we must accept...
...stadium--sometimes for fifty repetitions--during winter conditioning. The problem was not altogether physical because many people had done it before, and I was capable of enduring.

This was a question that continually returned as the rigors of rowing and conditioning were experienced. The five races during the season could not justify the time and turmoil that was involved. There must have been something more. The satisfaction upon...
...benefits expected from vampire control are manifold: a marked decrease in outbreaks of both human and animal rabies and other infections carried by the bats; an increase in the weight of beef cattle, and a comparable increase in milk production-for a cow that is being bled by vampires may yield only 20 quarts of milk a day as against a normal 30. There is no danger of the vampire's becoming extinct, says Mexican Biologist Raul Flores Crespo. "We can reduce the population, but we cannot totally destroy it. The vampire can return to the jungle and live...
