...know it." Our position will seem purely destructive, only if you feel that what Dean Ford calls the present "fundamental distribution of roles and responsibilities in the University" is sacrosanct. For it is true that if we had our way that distribution of roles and responsibilities (not to mention power) would be destroyed. We do desire (at least) a "fundamental alteration" -- as Ford puts it -- of the present situation; if he wishes to call that destruction, that is his right...
...those whose trade is to uncover an enemy's secrets "receive their instructions within the tent of the general and are intimate and close to him." Yet when Richard Nixon becomes Commander in Chief, he will need an extraordinary measure of sagacity, wisdom, humanity and justice-not to mention delicacy and subtlety-to discern the truth in the reports prepared for him by Washington's intelligence operatives. As Inauguration Day approaches, the capital's cloak-and-dagger community is bickering furiously over Viet...
Research to date has revealed no serious harmful effects of cyclamates in man. But far more interesting than what the FDA said was what it did not say. It made no mention of recent studies in its own laboratories in which a product of cyclamate metabolism, cyclohexylamine, causes breaks in the chromosomes of cells grown in the test tube. Injections cause similar damage to the chromosomes of rats. In terms of effects upon chromosomes in human beings-and therefore, upon future generations-no one knows just what this means. No matter how hard and fast the geneticists try to work...
...decadence is already setting in with proposed trips to the mock world of TV (The Love Machine by Jacqueline Susann), public relations (The Image Men by J. B. Priestley and The Fame Game by Rona Jaffe), not to mention high fashion (The Collection by Paul Montana) and publishing itself (The Center of the Action by Jerome Weid-man). Probably in this category, too, belongs Henry Sutton's The Voyeur, which he says is not about Hugh Hefner and the Playboy empire...
Once upon a time (c. 1910) there was an inventor named Caractacus Potts (Dick Van Dyke). He and his two children-apparently spawned by autogenesis, since there is no mention of a mother-live with their potty Grandpa (Lionel Jeffries) and a bunch of malfunctioning machines, ingeniously designed by Rowland Emett. Like the man who invented five-up and six-up and then gave up, Caractacus falls just short of greatness. His vacuum cleaner not only cleans the rug, it swallows it. His color television set just broadcasts wobbles. His Icarus act fizzles when the rockets tied to his back...
