A few weeks ago, for example, a beaming little girl of about a year and a half wandered into the Crimson's newsroom and proceeded to disrupt things.

The columnist now has a spot four times a week on the financial page. When a group of antiwar staffers wanted to buy an ad demanding Richard Nixon's impeachment, Winship balked. The result was a compromise in which the Op-Ed page one day was given over to a debate between the pro-impeachment faction and the paper's chief editorialist...
