...they are used. Octavio Paz, who must surely rank as one of the handful of great living poets, was teaching a course in Spanish to a half dozen students. Fitzgerald, one of the few extant experts on epic poetry, taught one student Homer and Dante. Paul Rotterdam, one of the few significant contemporary painters who even dain teach, had eight students in his course: of which perhaps two were seriously considering careers as painters. These are just a few examples from my years at Harvard. They represent a shocking waste of resources...
Last month Viewpoint members passed out handbills inviting people to a "Death to the Klan" protest march on Saturday, Nov. 3, in a mostly black section of the city.

Indeed, the entertainment world itself has been displaying an ever-more-conspicuous political face. Jane Fonda fights nuclear energy. Robert Redford preaches environmentalism. Paul Newman turns up as an emissary to the U.N.-where Pearl Bailey also once sat. Ideology has begun blurting forth even at Oscar shindigs, injected in 1973 by Marlon Brando for the American Indians and last year by Vanessa Redgrave against Zionism...
