...Most of the time I was indifferent to the Rev. Martin Luther King's activities. Occasionally I scoffed at his publicity, although I was unconsciously reassured that someone was doing something for humanity. But I cried at his murder. Possibly King's beautiful dream will ultimately result in his being remembered as a man, not a black man. The first step was taken as a thoughtful America united in mourning for a martyred leader. At any rate, our flag waved in a fellow American's memory...
...last week 85% of the Dark Forest lay in smoking ruins, the result of a monumental five-week fire that, as An Xuyen Province Pacification Chief William Barrett said, was the result of "a set of circumstances that could never be duplicated in a million years."

The defense has said that a close reading of the Selective Service regulations shows that Congress never intended to make failure to carry your draft card with you illegal. In that case, collecting draft cards would be no crime at all. In addition, the five's lawyers contended during the hearings that turning in cards...
...rich vein since the section contains at least three men capable of pleasing solo presentations. The had on the whole a good sound, but the second tenors (an imperious breed of specialists as difficult to find as second fiddles) were not a match for the firsts in quality. The result was a slight imbalance and loss of clarity in the inner voices...
