Whether the facelift represents anything more than just that is still an open question. The Herald has long been known for its occasionally inaccurate reporting, and that tendency has apparently not yet changed. Earlier this year, the Herald reported that Yale President Kingman Brewster was about to resign and would be replaced by a current dean, who would become the university's first woman president. Although not the result of a Crimson parody of the Yale Daily News, it sounded like it might have been. Last week, in a story billed as an exclusive from its Washington bureau, the Herald...

Senator Edward Brooke, a black, demanded Butz's resignation. Jimmy Carter declared that Butz's crack was "disgraceful," and repeated his view that the man was not fit to sit in the Cabinet.
