...press. But TIME has learned that Project Jennifer did in fact succeed: the entire wreck, a 320-ft.-long Golf-class II diesel-powered submarine built in 1961, was recovered virtually intact. Confirms a senior U.S. Navy officer: "It was all one hell of a success." Why the partial-recovery story? The CIA remains mum about its motives but the agency evidently had a dual aim. For one thing, it wanted to defend the high cost of Jennifer-about $550 million, all billed to the Navy. At the same time, the agency wanted to avoid unnecessarily embarrassing the Russians...
...Black theater both at Harvard and in Boston which is not being met due to a lack of consistent offerings in the area. It had been the organization's hope that by bringing such notable figures as Charles Gordone to the Harvard community the void could at least be partially filled. Black CAST is most appreciative of the Office of the Arts's aid in this matter, but it is quite obvious that its grant alone cannot begin to pay anything more than partial expenses for a series involving several lectures. In an effort to supplement the grant, Black CAST...

For while Archie C. Epps III, dean of students, agreed to include Asian-American students in future programs for minorities sponsored by his office, he declined to endorse their demand for minority status...
There was also in key Northern states like New York the partial return of urban ethnic and Catholic voters after the defection over McGovern. The heavily Catholic Queens borough of New York City gave Carter a margin 10 per cent greater than Humphrey received in 1968. The South Side of Milwaukee was largely responsible for Carter's surprising win in Wisconsin; the mainly Polish, Lithuanian and South Slav voters of that area gave him a vote upwards of 55 per cent...
Coat of Arms. Superstition and tribal customs still abound in the Transkei, though there are many signs of modernization. The lobola (bride price) was once reckoned only in cows (ten was the average). Today transistor radios are increasingly acceptable as a partial substitute, and so are Western-style clothes. Livestock farming is the main occupation, but there are factories for making matches, textiles and cutlery. A university is planned that will ultimately cost $80 million (though at present only 6% of all Transkeian children reach secondary school). The territory even has a new coat of arms-two leopards, a bull...
