...university is an institution transcending time and geography." He is distressed because too many academic institutions have become too involved with contemporary problems, too influenced by a misguided zeal for community service. The trouble, Barzun says, can be traced to a "great shift to research after 1945." One inevitable result has been the student riots, the worst of which occurred at Columbia soon after Barzun completed his manuscripts. He is noticeably cool to student rioters, although he sympathizes with some of their protests. So many professors are busy with activities outside the classroom, he says, that they have become guilty...
Some of Cliburn's admirers believe that such lapses-as well as the lengthening pauses between record releases-result from the strain of trying to be both an artist and a commercial phenomenon in the music business. To keep up the momentum that started in Moscow in 1958, Cliburn plays a punishing concert schedule of well over 100 appearances a year. At fees that start at $7,500 for a solo appearance, this means that he makes something like a million dollars a year, including record royalties -although he coyly denies that he is rich ("Heavens, no!").

...surtax "unless additional, very stringent economies are placed in effect." Mills takes an even dimmer view of the President-elect's pet scheme to offer private enterprise tax incentives for tackling pollution control, ghetto job training and slum rebuilding.

...result, foreign investment has increased sharply. Mobil has completed a $23 million facility, starting a rush of private investment by U.S. companies that is expected to reach $275 million in three years. All told, more than 320 modern plants are active in metal fabrication, electronics, optical instruments, diesel engines and other fields. Along with low labor costs, they get easy access to Asian markets from Singapore's key location at the tip of the Malay Peninsula. Swan Hunter International, a British shipbuilding and repairing firm, is using that geographical fillip to advantage. Noting that no fewer than 127 mammoth...
Scared of Daddy. Kramer taped a diary last season, and Instant Replay is more or less the result. He shows that all was not beating and moaning in Lombardi's bedlam. "Tomorrow, I imagine, Coach Lombardi'll pat him on the head, rub his back, scratch his ears, and everybody'll feel a little better," he writes of one player. At other times, Coach leads his bulls in song. All very sincere, all very calculated. What makes the diary interesting is that the author knows exactly what is being done to him, chooses it, and even...
