...offset the effects of their defeat on the planes, Israeli officials were calling for action by Carter to get Sadat to reopen the peace talks, which were broken off in January. Insisted a senior Israeli diplomat: "Before the end of May, we have to have some dramatic gesture to help us. The Administration has to put the onus of peacemaking on the Egyptians and Saudis." Carter is not likely to go that far, but he is expected to take some action soon, perhaps this week. As a first step, he sent messages to Begin, Sadat and King Khalid of Saudi...
...reduction -mostly out of simple fear of voter anger, but also on the well-justified philosophical ground that the tax is inflationary (it will raise businessmen's payroll costs, and the increase will be passed on in higher prices). Carter, however, just does not want to reopen the subject. He told congressional leaders last week that doing so would be "a very serious mistake...
...those who lost their loved ones, homes, or businesses in the blizzard, The Crimson extends its deepest sympathy. To those who were inconvenienced--especially those students who live off-campus and missed classes because of the administration's ill-conceived decision to reopen on Friday, despite the state's ban on private cars--we extend the hope that even better planning may relieve such troubles in future emergencies.

The theater lost $2.2 million in 1977, and officials figure it would lose $3.5 million this year if it stayed open. The Music Hall needs to take...
Horrors! The stunt worked all too well. A Manhattan-based representative of Moscow's Literaturnaya Gazeta hopped on a plane for Vulcan. A Russian charity committee said it was willing to consider a donation to help reopen the Big Sandy. Said Robinette, aghast at what he had unleashed: "Lord, Lord, get me out of this mess." Happily, someone did. State Highway Commissioner Charles L. Miller suddenly announced a $500,000, one-lane bridge for Vulcan, to be built within a year. All of which caused the New York Times to suggest, tongue in cheek, that if the Soviets were...
