...Governor-elect's most telling campaign issue, however, seemed to be Muñ0z. Ferré charged him with developing "one-man rule in the manner of a Latin American political boss." Even P.D.P. workers seemed to agree that Muñ0z, after long service and such distinguished accomplishments as gaining commonwealth status and strengthening the island economy with his much-publicized Operation Bootstrap, had finally become a liability.

By which I don't mean to invite a chain of one-man Bernard Shaw impersonations, but of other free entertainments equally worthwhile. A tall order, maybe, but not hopelessly impractical. Not quite. Even though the audience had a corporate windfall to thank for last night's open house, more of the same could conceivably come about through the long-term machinations, of the English faculty and the Loeb administration, particularly if their efforts were backed up by a small allotment...
