...feeling that they are not realizing their potential; for others, the cause is frustration with a system of authority that seems overbearing and out of date. Yet the church cannot just abandon the structure. Too many generations of priests, says Sociologist Philip Murnion, have been "socialized"?conditioned to react only to the dictates of an established structure. When priests live and work on their own, as they have in some experimental programs, they often leave the active ministry. After they leave, they are apt to join secular bureaucracies?notably welfare agencies ?that also allow them little room...
...least in part, by its successor. Novel ideas are taken up by liberals, conservatives react in horror-and inch to the left. Today's Great Silent Majority is certainly more liberal than its predecessor of 20 years ago. The radicals disapprovingly call this process "corporation." The ungainly word sums up the best political hope for the decade: that the broad middle of American society will adopt the legitimate ideas of the radicals (as it has come close to adopting the idea of a guaranteed annual wage) while discarding the excesses.

...meaty" taste. Japanese chemists discovered in 1908 that an active ingredient of the seaweed is MSG.

...rate, since Yovicsin is a Harvard employee, the University considers him a representative of Harvard, and Lord knows how the public would react to this association, however, with gambling. First of all, it is unfair to tag Yovicsin with the Harvard name in his outside employment, and secondly, why the hell must we worry so much about the people whose feathers will be ruffled by Yovicsin's new job? Yovicsin should be free to act as an individual, and Harvard should not let a small segment of public opinion negate that right...
...concert proceeded, Jagger wearing outrageousness on his sleeve, a symbol that we could all react to. Through "Stray Cat Blues." much slower than the record, Watts occasionally losing the beat, the lyres changed from fifteen to thirteen year-old girl (outrage, like any fashion, ages quickly). They do some slow numbers, a "Prodigal Son." Richard's steel guitar funkier and less evocative than the Rev. Robert Wilkins, and "Love in Vain," a Robert Johnson song, which Jagger, sketching out the Stones' new image, and rushed to keep ahead of mere satyriasis and the universal dope-taker, dedicates to "the minority...
