The economy is not only good but sensational-a fact underscored by the stock market's confident thrust toward the 1,000-point mark in the Dow-Jones industrial average and by the gross national product's one-year surge of $34 billion to an estimated level of $675 billion.

Men like Hersey, who can summon the power of the artist, reporter, and statesman into the kingdom of the teacher might pump a little new life into the House system. We hope that the University will consider appointing such men, perhaps on a one-year basis, when masterships open in the coming year. The idea is worthy of experiment...
