...Mario Savio, the student chiefly responsible for the dustup, said: "It sounds like a great report." And Byrne won other support. Regent Buff Chandler called it "a good piece of research, well written, with many salient points." Her family newspaper, the Los Angeles Times, published all 85 pages. Governor Pat Brown called it "very thoughtful, very provocative, a good report." U.C.L.A.'s Chancellor Franklin Murphy agreed with its major points...
...faculty conference-room. By contrast, the windowless basement is taken up by student classrooms and a lecture-hall. This peculiar distribution of floors does not provoke us to launch a Free Speech Movement at Harvard, but it does get us thinking along the lines of some of Mario Savio's complaints about the role of students at a university. It would perhaps be going too far to suggest the deportation to the basement of Professors Erikson, Kagan, Wiley, White, Swanson and McClelland, but we do feel that some small gesture of good will is in order on the part...
Ever since the student protest movement at the University of California degenerated into a naughty-naughty display of obscene words in March, it has fallen into impotent fragments.

...instrument of luscious quality, her soprano last week was a thin and often wobbly echo of the voice that fled the Met in 1958. Her high notes were shrill and achingly insecure, and seemed all the more so by contrast with the rich, ringing tenor of Franco Corelli as Mario. In the poignant Vissi d'Arte aria, Callas relied almost wholly on dramatic rather than vocal brilliance to carry her through-which, in her case, is admittedly a compelling compromise. The audience certainly thought so. At the curtain, a shower of roses and confetti rained down from the galleries...
