...better: fuss-budgety Lucy is destined to grow from "the crabby little girl of today" to "the crabby old woman of tomorrow"; "good ol' wishy-washy" Charlie Brown will be forever friendless, always the losing pitcher in 184-to-O baseball games. Trapped by what Cardinal Newman called "some terrible aboriginal calamity," Schulz's characters never seem able to keep up with the world. As Linus puts it: "How can you do 'new math' problems with an 'old math' mind...

Newman, U S Attorney for Connecticut, ordered his staff to tell reporters nothing that might prejudice a defendant's rights. "If in doubt," admonished Newman's memo keep silent."

In 1962, McCann sponsored the bill that directed the Metropolitan District Commission to build three underpasses or overpasses. During the last session of the legislature, Campbell joined Representatives Mary B. Newman (R-Cambridge) and William P. Homans, Jr. (D-Cambridge) in sponsoring three bills to delay construction until someone studied Cambridge's total traffic requirements. And although none of the three bills passed, Campbell has promised that, if elected, he will introduce a bill to repeal...
