...witnessed the attempted fire-bombing near the Science Center after the East Asian Legal Studies Forum on Vietnam the evening of Thursday, April 23, I certainly agree with Prof. John Womack (see his letter in the April 30 Crimson) that the attack on East Asian Research Center associate Dr. Ngo Vinh Long '68 calls for scrupulous investigation by the appropriate authorities. Harvard Police officer Thomas Simas has made a complaint to the District Court against one Ngo Nghia "for the crime of Assault with Intent to Commit Murder." Prosecution proceedings, originally scheduled for May 1, are being delayed...
While it is probably only to be expected that in most newspapers a lamentably high percentage of quotations are in fact misquoted. I should have thought that Prof. Hue-Tam Ho Tai, a participant in the April 23 panel and a member of the Harvard faculty (asst. professor of Sino-Vietnamese History) would not have repeated, in her letter published together with that of Dr. Womack on April 30, an April 24 misquotation from the Crimson. Dr. Long never expressed the opinion that the "reeducation camps" in Vietnam are "necessary," as can be attested by a complete recording...

...church in Siena. Between lectures Usher gets involved in a gang war, a stratagem to rescue the Donatello, attempts on his life and gory efforts to derail Harrigan's shenanigans. He is assisted by an American pop economist, a rumbustious Boston newspaper editor, a skirt-chasing Turkish prof, a Swinburne-spouting I.R.A. turncoat, a high-level Treasury official with the unlikely name of Sir Olaf McConnochie - and the admirable Alyss. Though Davey's novels tend to be more whosaidits than whodunits, Treasury offers alarums and excursions aplenty...
...World students at Harvard. Third World students representing Blacks, Africans, Chicanos, Boricuans, Asians, and Native Americans have called on Harvard to live up to its professed commitments to Third World students by providing a Third World Center. This demand is not unprecedented, for many of the "elite universities" (as Prof. Klitgaard calls them) have responded to similar demands of their Third World students and have provided Centers (Yale, Princeton, Wellesley, Dartmouth, etc.). Of course the university's response was the typical smoke screen--a committee. Perhaps alleged embezzlement/drug use does not merit committee investigation, nor even an investigation by legal...
