...local considerations, last week's elections nonetheless had national significance. Under De Gaulle's new constitution, the election of France's Senate and the election of the President of the Republic are to be in the hands of electoral colleges largely composed of municipal councilors. Result is that the new Senate to be elected next month is likely to bear considerable resemblance in its party groupings to the Chamber of Deputies of the Fourth Republic. As such, the Senate will be a counterweight to the U.N.R.-dominated Assembly-a development not likely to discomfit De Gaulle...
...Tribesmen. For Japan's 46,780,000 women, Michiko-san's unprecedented break with ancient tradition is the most dramatic illustration of a change that has come to all of them-the direct result of the crushing defeat of Japan in the Pacific war, the unsettling occupation of the green and pleasant islands by U.S. troops, and the new constitution established by the conqueror, General of the Army Douglas MacArthur, in 1946.

However, these rules lost much of their importance last fall, when the Radcliffe Administration voted to hold joint exams with Harvard in courses enrolling less than 20 'Cliffies. As a result, Radcliffe administered only 52 separate examinations at mid-year, while Harvard and its regulations controlled finals in approximately 375 courses...
This provision, the result of a floor amendment by Senator Mundt passed in the adjournment rush of last August, has occasioned critical letters by Presidents Pusey, Griswold and Goheen along with protests from Bates, Colby and Bowdoin. Support for repeal of the oath has come from the American Association of University Professors and the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, Arthur S. Flemming. Unfortunately the chairman of the appropriate House committee, Graham Barden, has announced his firm opposition to repeal of the loyalty oath...
