...Fascist-style society in West Germany and an atmosphere of hate against them. Even before the Dutschke incident, the most popular lapel buttons among radical students was Enteignet Springer-Dispossess Springer. In response to the wide-scale attacks against Springer's plants, Bild Am Sonntag, his big Sunday paper, vowed: "No terror will bend us." His readers seemed to like what they read. Despite all the efforts of radical students to stop the distribution of his papers, they enjoyed last week the best sales in their history...
...strike, however, caught the papers off guard. Memphis, as they boasted perhaps too often, had never had a serious racial disturbance. Partly because of this, the papers were rattled when it finally occurred. At first they tried to portray it as simply a labor issue, though the fact that 95% of the sanitationmen are Negroes obviously gave it a racial complexion.

...style of play. Van Breda Kolff contributes considerably to that himself. A sometime N.B.A. guard (with the New York Knickerbockers) and coach at Princeton during the Bill Bradley era, he is a study in perpetual motion during Lakers' games-stalking the sideline screaming at officials, drop-kicking paper cups fu11 of water into the crowd. Van Breda Kolff's enthusiasm has cost him 24 technical fouls and $850 in fines this season, but it has also proved infectious. "We're all charged up," says Baylor, and West goes even further: "I think...
