...surprising, then, to find Cook a little numb by the time he gets to Woodstock, which he sees as the natural outgrowth of one Beat movement. Having gone there to observe the rock festival (though his base of operations was a motel room), he reports that most of the people he saw were sullen, mud-caked and silently straining to hear the music. He dismisses the claim that Woodstock was the soul-expanding event portrayed in Michael Wadleigh's film documentary. Well and good. But amid the chaos of Max Yasgur's farm, Cook seems a little like...
...matter is also believed to have been discussed at the hastily called Crimean summit conference two weeks ago attended by all Soviet bloc countries except Rumania. In what was read by observers as an outgrowth of that conference, Literaturnaya Gazeta, a leading Soviet weekly, last week reprinted a Polish article rebuking Rumania for taking a neutral position in the Chinese-Soviet dispute. In an even harsher tone-the official Hungarian daily Magyar Hirlap reported that Chinese Premier Chou En-lai would visit Albania, Yugoslavia and Rumania this fall.

This new dynamic that Carter sees at work in Georgia is in an odd fashion the outgrowth of that old preoccupation with racial issues. Says Emory University Political Scientist James Clotfelter Jr.: "The walls did not come tumbling down when schools were integrated.

...combination of armor, air-mobile infantry, and air cavalry represents "a logical outgrowth of the great advances in Army mobility and the lessons learned in Southeast Asia," Army Chief of Staff, General William Westmoreland, intoned last week at Fort Hood, Texas. The occasion was the unveiling of the Army's first triple-capability (TRICAP) division, an experiment in relating the uses of the helicopter, as refined in Viet Nam, to the Army of the '70s and '80s. Should TRICAP prove out over the next three years, it will employ tanks for shock on the ground, Hueys...
...Ohio's freewheeling Antioch College. Every day Stevens goes to a job in the guidance office of a nearby high school as part of her work toward a master of arts in teaching. Her new emphasis on dealing "with one person at one level at a time" is an outgrowth of her post-Wheaton frustration over conventional reformist projects. As a graduate student at the Columbia School of Social Work, she went to Harlem to act as a "block catalyst." Her block was black on one side and Puerto Rican on the other; she was neither black nor Spanish...
