...only one more I should like to mention. The modern physician is losing some of his identification with the community, not because of specialization or lack of interest, but because he is swept up in the inexorable force of urbanization which brings with it the kind of impersonal relationship brought into hideous focus by the refusal of certain New Yorkers to go to the aid of their fellow citizens being attacked by outlaws of the city. The physician too, if he is a product of the city, develops a certain indifference to the health problems of his community, although...
...other areas, Harvard has also made improvements. For example Dean Robert B. Watson has established a good working relationship with the Cambridge police. As the partial result, the police are consistently excellent in handling student disturbances, which range from springtime "riots" to anti-war protests. In addition, there seems to be a silent concord between Harvard and the police to let the University handle its own disciplinary problems...
Defter Dissertations. A different attack on the problem is to reform the dissertation. Berkeley English Professor Charles Muscatine calls the present Ph.D. "narrow, specialized and constipated. What is needed is a more human and intelligent relationship between the student's training and his thesis." Many dissertations are tedious tomes, running up to a thousand pages and taking two or more years to write-and seemingly almost as long for an outsider to read...
...easterners that a full-scale invasion has begun. Taking over a tailor shop, subduing a telephone operator (Tessie O'Shea), Arkin's response to crisis is a cunning blend of caution, mad sweetness and reluctant acts of aggression, all booby-trapped with nuance about the love-hate relationship between East and West. Though many of his lines are in Russian (hastily acquired for this role), his Red-roving English is a comic wonder, spoken with the don't-look-back resolve of a man headed over Niagara Falls in a barrel...

Self-consciously she befriends a bright, embittered Indian boy; surreptitiously they become lovers. The relationship infuriates the English community and sets a bad example for the peasantry-at least for four Hindu hooligans who rape her one summer evening. The attackers escape, the Indian boy is vindictively jailed on a trumped-up political charge, and peaceful at last, the English girl dies in giving birth...
