...Faculties too have been brought face to face with the same range of problems. The result at Harvard, as elsewhere, has been to precipitate a reconsideration of the whole question of decision-making within the University and its faculties. The existence of this committee may be viewed as a partial response to this challenge, at least as it affects the Faculty of Arts and Sciences...
...arms-control milestone, the seabed treaty proposed by the U.S. and the Soviet Union in Geneva last week hardly ranks in importance with 1963's partial nuclear test ban and the nuclear nonproliferation pact of 1968. Nor is it any substitute for the long-delayed strategic arms limitation talk (SALT), which Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko last month promised to consider "soon." Still, like the treaties denuclearizing Antarctica and outer space, the seabed proposal at least offers the hope that one more area may be closed to the arms race...
...arguing with him. At one point, he complained that because he was a Jew "no one in this country considers me a fellow Russian." Kochubiyevsky should have limited himself to a silent scream. For his comments he was denounced, arrested, and tried last May for spreading "Zionist propaganda." A partial transcript of his trial, recently smuggled to the West, shows that anti-Semitism is very much alive in the Soviet Union...
...complains before righting the situation during a drunken brawl. Ginger, shaken up just a bit at first, finally recovers and marries Jill, who by now is great with Dwyer's child. All of this is supposed to be comic, but it comes out grubby melodrama. There is, as partial compensation, some excellent location photography of suburban London by Cameraman Larry Pizer, but that's just so much frosting on a half-baked slice of lowlife...
...highlight the Administration's concern further, Nixon announced that he was suspending draft calls for November and December. He said that the 29,000 already scheduled to be called in October would be spread out over the next three months. Nixon explained that the partial withdrawal of U.S. troops from Viet Nam was the reason for the cutback, and that in December, if all goes well, he would review the programmed January call-up for possible cuts. In overall figures, however, Nixon's announcement means only 5,600 fewer draftees in 1969 than last year...
