Negligible as a piece of film making, The Strawberry Statement is an interesting study in Hollywood exploitation, a classic "rip-off," as kids these days refer to robbery. The film makers ignored the issue of campus politics (the one real revolutionary is portrayed as a speed freak who wears an eye patch and talks like a paranoid Long John Silver), and produced something that might be called Andy Hardy Gets Busted. A few more films like Getting Straight (TIME, May 18) and The Strawberry Statement, and students may begin occupying what is left of MGM's offices instead...

Egyptian barrages are not as worrisome to Israeli troopers as the sudden single shell that can catch a man in the open, on his way to the kitchen or the latrine. Also worrisome are the "monkeys," as the moles refer to the camouflaged Egyptian snipers who perch in 60-ft. eucalyptus trees across the canal. At one fort, a sniper plinked away whenever an Israeli headed for a shower. The commander knew that artillery would be of little use; 105-mm. howitzers had been tried before, but only made the trees sway. Besides, the shells cost $85 apiece. One morning...
