...deflect the impending campus protests. Leaders of a combined peace movement claimed spreading support for their plans to stage a nationwide "Moratorium Day" on campuses Oct. 15 and follow it with a two-day demonstration in November, including a march on Washington of 45,000 people, each bearing the name of a war fatality. The organizers say that 400 colleges will participate in the Moratorium Day, with students boycotting classes to hold mass teach-ins, distribute antiwar leaflets in neighborhoods, turn in their draft cards. One peace leader, Dr. Benjamin Spock, dismissed the troop-withdrawals as "frauds, sops...
...elections; after all, there are but 30,000 card-carrying members. Von Thadden's goal is far more modest: to poll at least 5% of the national vote, the minimum required for representation in the Bundestag. Even that prospect alarms many Germans, who are concerned about the bad name the N.P.D. is giving their country abroad. Anti-party banners proclaim N.P.D. = ATHLETE'S FOOT OF THE NATION, and ONE ADOLF WAS ALREADY TOO MANY. As Von Thadden likes to quip in his campaign speeches, "People are always telling me that the Americans won't buy any more...
...evident when Georges Séguy, the Communist leader of France's 1,500,000-member Confédération Générale du Travail, warned that Pompidou's term of office "might well be short" because of labor unrest.

In any case, he warned, the government would take every step to ensure "republican order...
...fellow tribesmen were to be evicted. The Tangwena fought back and their appeals were sustained by Rhodesia's High Court. Unimpressed by such legalities, the government in Salisbury simply overrode the decision, proclaiming that the "squatters" must move to a nearby tribal reserve. Rekayi, whose full name means "Let Tangwena Be," refused to go. The new land, he said, is considered sacred by his tribe and serves as the burial ground for at least three of its chiefs. As a result, some of his people were afraid to live there...
...College in Bourbonnais (a later pupil: Fulton J. Sheen), Sheil was ordained in 1910 and assigned to a middle-class parish. He caught Cardinal Mundelein's eye, however, and began to receive promising assignments. He served as chaplain at the Cook County jail, as an assistant at Holy Name Cathedral and was named chancellor of the archdiocese in 1923. A year later, on his first visit to Rome, he was received by Pius XI, and in 1928 he was consecrated bishop...
