CLEARLY THE Fainsod Committee has been designed not to instigate student power but to co-opt it before the issue really threatened the Corporation's vital interests. The Committee's principal protagonists, Dean Ford, President Pusey, and Merle Fainsod are knowing in the ways of corporate bureaucracies. The first solicits money for them, the second administrates them, and the third studies them.

Sinclair had other reasons to opt for Atlantic Richfield. Although it boasts a solid refinery and marketing operation, Sinclair suffers from limited production capacity and must buy large amounts of crude oil at a premium from outside sources. Fast-growing Atlantic Richfield (1967 sales: $1.56 billion) has meanwhile been on a production binge, and its recent oil find on the North Slope of Alaska promises to be one of the largest in U.S. history. A merger that would enable Atlantic Richfield to move its oil through Sinclair refineries would obviously benefit both companies...
