...question the enforceability of the second section of SFAC's resolution which stipulates that an organization "shall be required to discuss its policies at a public meeting" if 500 students petition for such a meeting. The third part of SFAC's resolution (defeated decisively by the Faculty) can be read to say that even those organizations which turned down the petition for a public meeting would only be barred after a second petition asking that they not be allowed on campus...
...accompaniment" for How to Pass, Kick, Fall and Run (TIME, March 15), by Cunningham's friend Composer John Cage, had nothing to do with music. At a small table downstage left sat Cage and Actor David Vaughan in dinner jackets, sipping champagne while they read humorous snippets and anecdotes from Cage's writings ("When Gandhi was asked what he thought about Western civilization, he said, 'It would be nice' ").

The old novelist gives him speeches on "the joy of being without feeling." He hardly needs them...
...ordeal of obtaining a book from the stacks of Widener. Just as an industrious Cliffie chooses one book from the stacks by some apparently mystical method, so the cell somehow selects which information to copy. Next, the Cliffie has to decide whether or not the book is worth reading after all. She may carry it with her to the reading room or she may immediately discard it in the stacks. Similarly, not all the information which is copied into RNA is transported to the cytoplasm. Finally, as the girl may postpone reading the tome once in the reading room...
