...purpose of the Entertainment Fund is again distorted, this time with little excuse. In paraphrasing the text given to The Crimson, the words "House staffs" are substituted for the words "household staff," which is not a trivial change. As a minimum, I believe that The Crimson should print verbatum and in its entirety the second paragraph of the text that was given to them last Monday. Bruce Collier Assistant Dean of Harvard College
...PRINT, Oldenburg compares his clothespin to Brancusi's sculpture, The Kiss. The form he discovered and liberated sustains the comparison. In fact, the clothespin as Oldenburg has perceived it pushes Brancusi's conception farther than Brancusi does, being more truly two-in-one.

There has been a certain amount of fuss about all this, which Salisbury may have anticipated ("A first I thought, gee whiz, should I do this," he said). In the Ellsworth (Maine) Times, E.B. White said he detected "the shadow of disaster" in the Salisbury-Xerox nexus and wondered...
...story is all too familiar. A shopper buys a refrigerator, handsaw or any of hundreds of thousands of other products covered by a warranty only to have the product quickly break down. When the consumer reads the warranty's fine print, he discovers that the document is so filled with exceptions and qualifications as to make the manufacturer's promise to fix or replace the item almost useless. That situation is likely to become far less common in the years ahead because of the first of a series of strict new warranty regulations issued recently by the Federal...
