...mass meeting itself was sharply divided. A large but unorganized group of moderates had come to the meeting: they were willing to accept a strike, but wanted political action during the strike directed outward- toward ending the war-rather than inward against the University. The moderates noisily applauded Dean May when he gave a brief announcement, and remained conspicuously seated when the rest of the crowd gave Panther leader Doug Miranda a standing ovation. In the end, however, they lost the crucial vote of the evening, as the meeting approved, 1770-900 a demand calling on the University to immediately...

With an outward joy that failed to conceal their inner anger, blacks were singing, praying and chanting together in a common cry for social justice.

The sacrament of holy orders, conferred on a priest by a duly consecrated bishop and only by a bishop, give the priest the power to effect this mystical change. The bishops, lineal successors to the first Apostles, received this commission through the Apostles...
...retired soldier named Sam Dorkin had been reclassified as a mixed-blood "Colored" after 75 years of life as a white man; his army pension was reduced from $61 to $29 a month. Nonetheless, Vorster has managed to loosen some of apartheid's tight restrictions. He adopted an "outward-looking" policy of establishing trade and diplomatic links with a few black states in southern Africa, and he agreed to allow New Zealand's rugby team, including some native Maoris, to compete in South Africa...
