...must carry a majority of the American "people with him in November if the "Battle of the West" is not to be lost in the ballot boxes of the U.S.A. This is an agonizing situation in which the President needs the support of as many influential persons and media as possible. At this juncture, every man, regardless of party, who agrees with the President on the international scene, should give him unequivocal support. I am a Republican, but the failure of leading Republicans to rally to the support of our President so plainly derives from the hope of political advantage...
...Circuit, who chairs the New York City bar association's fair-trial committee. In its own forthcoming report on the subject, said Medina, his committee will differ sharply with the A.B.A.'s pretrial proposals on the ground that American judges lack power to discipline police and news media until a case comes to trial.

Scorned are such traditional tools as the lithographer's stone and crayon, the engraver's burin, the woodcutter's gouge; in are Plexiglas and acetate, molded plastic and all kinds of electric lighting...
...Michael's College in Toronto: "The bishops came back from the council raising the hopes of the young, and then they ignored what they had said in Rome." Still another reason, suggests Philosopher Michael Novak of Stanford, is that the council "demythologized" the church. Reported by secular mass media as just another news event, "it was brought down to human size and seen in the context of real life." Moreover, the evidence of elderly bishops openly challenging hallowed traditions inspired lay Catholics, young and old, to re-examine their faith on their own. In brief, the spirit...
