...Patrick Moynihan points out in The Public Interest, youth of the 1960s was highly isolated from the rest of society. And in isolation is bred arrogance and unworldliness. Age, on the other hand, did not have the benefit of easy contact with youth. There was a tendency either to defect rather mindlessly to youth, accepting uncritically an alteration of values, or to develop a siege mentality and fear and resent one's own children. It was all too easy, depending on one's point of view, to hold youth responsible for what was good in society...
...Patrick E. Gorman, secretary-treasurer of the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workers of North America; David Selden, president of the American Federation of Teachers; Victor Reuther, former international-affairs director of the United Automobile Workers; Irving Howe, editor of Dissent magazine; and historian Christopher Lasch were among those who signed the appeal for a convention...
Student reaction to H.C.S.P. is understandably enthusiastic. Patrick Montoya, 21, of San Juan Pueblo, N.

...MACKINTOSH MAN is a triumph of the packager's craft. It brings together a trio of international stars (Paul Newman, Dominique Sanda and James Mason), an array of first-class English supporting players (Harry Andrews, Ian Bannen, Nigel Patrick), and a renowned director (John Huston) whose work is not what it once was-or seemed to be -but who remains a solidly professional moviemaker. However, a close inspection of the script could have saved everyone a lot of trouble. It seems to have been prematurely disinterred from a time capsule devoted to the cultural artifacts of the 1960s, when...
