...opinion there are, today, far too many students in the colleges who essentially have no business to be there. Some are there to evade the draft, many others out of a vague idea that it will help them to find better paying jobs, though they do not know what jobs they want. And again many go to college because they do not know what better to do and because it is expected of them...

...Advance. This other France is perfectly represented by Candidate Alain Poher, 60, the jolly, well-fed Senator who so accurately describes himself as "a Frenchman like all the others." Poher last week made his expected announcement that he was a candidate, and was rewarded by a new public-opinion poll that, in a two-man race, gave him 56% of the vote to 44% for Pompidou-an extraordinary result in light of the fact that Poher has no party backing his candidacy and has only become widely known in recent weeks. Poher also repeated his attack on the government...

When the Dovells created the Bristol Stomp in the late fifties, they probably never anticipated the rapidity with which it was to vanish from the popular scene. Likewise, those who started the freshman intramural program at Harvard were probably of the opinion that it would last forever and ever. But if the participation continues to grow at its present negative rate, soon there will be no organized program of intramurals for first-year students...

There is not much consensus of opinion about what ought to be done to revive freshman intramurals. Undoubtedly, many people couldn't care less. One suggestion is to change into units larger than the dormitory so as to decrease the number of forfeits. This seems clumsy. There is little question that there could be an improvement in organization through the efforts of all involved--athletic secretaries, proctors, Floyd Wilson, and Rufus Peebles. And somehow interest must be stirred up. Perhaps more promotion, including press coverage, would help in that direction. At any rate Wilson and his advisors, if there...
