...articles by Cambridge 38 staff members finally deserve recognition. Thomas Bethell surveys the series of faux pas and unfortunate incidents marring recent African-American relations, a justly critical survey with some well-considered (though hardly original) conclusions. Simon Lazarus strings together a number of quotations concerning the Peace Corps, intended to emphasize the inherent limitations of the Corps. Both articles round out a valuable issue of Cambridge 38, by far the best of the six generally mediocre numbers of 1960-61. The magazine's staff could well devote further issues to similar themes...
...which the hero reaches home so late that he scarcely has time to kiss his poor mother goodbye before he rushes away to die-covers the steppes as far as eye can see with the Russian equivalent of smarmalade.

Yes, yes, the Crimson is much more than this; as it is easy to see, it is no official organ for anything...
When former Republican Gov. C. William O'Neill took office in 1956 behind the Eisenhower sweep, the state was almost entirely Republican, with the notable exception of Sen. Frank Lausche. O'Neill opened his term with a great faux pas unintentionally ignoring Ike's wave at the 1957 inauguration, and committed many more blunders before he was finished...
