Wednesday's demonstration, while unpleasant in some of its aspects, does not threaten the stability of the University. Harvard is indeed, as one professor pointed out, a vulnerable University, easy to find fault with, far easier still to attack in rash and unproductive ways. Its tolerance appears at times almost unlimited, so much so that radical reformers occasionally fulminate against administrators who refuse to fight back and who decline to create eyeball-to-eyeball confrontations...

...willingness of Mallinckrodt protestors to take rash action may demonstrate the intensity of their convictions, but at the same time it hampers the efforts of rational critics of the war who are making progress without violating the law. Disgust is the inevitable public reaction to extra-legal protest which infringes on the rights of others. And it lends cerdibility to right-wing charges against the peace movement...

...cleavage, virginity a lacquered ex-stripper trying to look like a wide-eyed schoolgirl caught up in the evil ways of the big city. Usually, there are only random glimpses of breasts and bottoms, although lately the nudies have been edging closer to the limits of pornography with a rash of "sadie-massies" that drag in homosexuality, flagellation, voyeurism, lesbianism and assorted orgies. Among some aficionados of the nudies, the subcategories are known as "roughies" (breasts and violence), "ghoulies" (breasts and monsters), "kinkies" (breasts and whips) and, inspired by the 1963 documentary Mondo Cane, "mondos" (breasts around the world...

...Rash of Terrorism. Ever since Israel's swift conquests, Premier Levi Eshkol has been under heavy pressure to permit Jews to move into and settle choice farm areas in the occupied Arab territories. He has been asked to allow 150 separate sites to be so settled, and last week he finally gave in-on one. He allowed a dozen paramilitary farm youths to reoccupy Etzion on the West Bank, sacred to Israelis as the site where four kibbutzim were wiped out in 1948 in a gallant stand that helped save Jerusalem from the Arab Legion. Fearing that the move...

Eshkol's government is both angry and concerned over a new rash of Arab terrorism. It began with random minings of roads and railroads, but has spread to such targets as the former Fast Hotel in Old Jerusalem, which was dynamited (it was scheduled to be torn down anyway), and a large canning factory at Givat Haim, which was blasted by a tractor toting 25 lbs. of TNT. The professional jobs are thought to be the work of the Syrian-trained terrorists of El Fatah, and Israeli agents fanned out through Arab settlements in the occupied territories picking...
