...Boylston Street could amount to a glass and steel barricade, while there is a strong need to tie the South End closer to the Back Bay. And besides looking strange and introducing congestion, surrounding Back Bay with high rise buildings or putting a high spine through Boston could even redirect winds and change temperatures in the area. It all seems worth concern, because the city is, after all, the most public and accessible art form...
After the Government banned cyclamates, the diet-food industry last week began one of the fastest turnarounds in U.S. industrial history. Officers of firms in the $1 billion-a-vear diet market hustled to cut their ties with cyclamates, to find an acceptable substitute, and to redirect marketing efforts to preserve demand for their heavily promoted brands. From now on, many of the diet drinks will be sweetened by a sugar-saccharin compound that may contain 30 calories in eight ounces, compared with only one or two calories in a cyclamate drink and 105 in a cola sweetened with straight...

...will enter the White House with little personal prestige or popoular support, and without the Congressional support that he had expected. Therefore, if he is going to be able to govern, he will have to end the war quickly and not necessarily "honorably." And he will have to redirect this country's resources to its own disintergrating cities, and not necessarily with that respect for the social beneficience of free enterprise that both major candidates have been extolling this fall. To meet these critical priorities. President Nixon will have to abandon the vague and simplistic formulas of his campaign...
