Most of the new papers lack manpower and money. Relatively few moderate and conservative students seem willing to invest the time necessary to publish a college newspaper; and most college towns provide scarcely enough advertising to support one student paper, let alone two. Moreover, some of the conservative publications are as invective-filled as any radical paper. For example, Ergo, one of M.I.T.'s new publications, recently called the school's antiwar-research demonstrators "neo-Nazis" and "syndicalist swine." Still, the new opposition press is getting results. Says Crimson President James Fallows: "It's unhealthy...
...races, last week's Outboard World Championship was the biggest, richest and roughest in history. The eight-hour marathon had 111 drivers fighting for $50,000 in prize money, much of it put up by Havasu's developer, Oilman Robert McCulloch. Between them, Outboard Marine and Kiekhaefer Mercury had no fewer than 40 boats in the field. By the end of the race, most of the craft were fit only for beach-party kindling. Within the first two hours, gusty 20-m.p.h. winds caused at least a dozen boats to flip into spray-spewing somersaults; others slammed sickeningly...

At about the same time, he was traveling the world with his favorite model, Jean Shrimpton...
...only token funds to administer new laws. Enforcement of the 1966 Fair Packaging and Labeling Act, adopted over vigorous objections from the food industry, has been all but abandoned by the FDA: it has funds to pay only two employees to do the job. The FTC initially received enough money to inform retailers of the new truth-in-lend-ing law, effective last July 1, but not enough to enforce...
When he appears in his own Broadway comedy (Play It Again, Sam) or his own film (Take the Money and Run), Allen fleshes out the jittery image of Everymanic-depressive. Inanimate objects become his sworn enemies, paranoia reigns and everyone becomes a Woody worshiper. But Don't Drink the Water is minus the man-as adapter and actor-and the result is the lesser half of a situation comedy...
