Marijuana ought to be legalized, argues a writer in Insight, published by students at Los Angeles' Hamilton High. The "kill, kill, kill" spirit at North Hollywood High football games suggests a Nazi youth rally, claims the student-edited Participator. Such opinions are not precisely what most principals expect to see in their high school newspaper. In these cases, the authorities were in no position to object, since the articles appeared in off-campus publications. Catching the rebellious fervor of their college elders, high school students are turning out a rash of unsupervised and unauthorized "underground" newspapers to express what...
Died. Walter S. Lemmon, 71, radio engineer, who used royalties from an early invention, the Single Dial Tuning Control (now standard for radio receivers) to set up short-wave radio station WRUL near Boston in 1934, turned it into a forerunner of the Voice of America, countering Nazi propaganda in 24 languages beamed to Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa; after a long illness; in Old Greenwich, Conn...
Precisely sketched in an ordinary lead pencil on large sheets of heavy paper, colored with dark brown and rust-colored washes, Lasansky's "Nazi Drawings" begin with images of bloated officers clothed in uniforms that could be either surplices or straitjackets, wearing tooth-studded half-helmets that could well be the skulls of their victims.

In this calmly chilling memoir, Wiesenthal contrasts monstrous murderers with gumshoe detective techniques in a manner as spare and striking as anything Dashiell Hammett wrote. Where Hammett...
Horatio at the Wall. Many of Elon's observations are familiar enough. He reviews the industrial resurgence of West Germany. One reads again of the neo-Nazi lunatic fringe, but Elon suggests that a vigilant press and growing democratic values keep the extreme rightists cornered. And there are also the usual set pieces: the Horatian discourse before the Berlin Wall, the discovery of the Germans' compulsive need to be loved, the bloody reappearance of Schmisse (dueling scars) on the Nordic faces of West German Korporationen youth...
