...pick up any states in the past month's campaigning-even though he has dropped somewhat in at least one poll. In Arkansas he has taken the lead from Humphrey, whose liberalism is anathema to rural Arkies, and might even manage to carry urban Pulaski County (Little Rock). South Carolina's Senator Strom Thurmond has been stumping the South for Nixon but strangely neglecting South Carolina. Wallace, as a result, has edged ahead. Thurmond's own supporters are so concerned that a Wallace victory would damage the Senator's prestige that they have distributed bumper stickers...
These are hard times for music audiences that want to see as well as hear a lively show. Jazzmen turn their backs to the house and noodle obscurely. Rock groups shamble around the bandstand in rummage-sale outfits, sometimes acknowledging their listeners' presence only with obscenities. And as for the avantgarde, how much stage presence can an electronic synthesizer have...
...American Negro has endured Little Rock and Selma; he will survive Missitucky, the mythological country of Finian's Rainbow. There, on a beaming day, a father (Fred Astaire) and his daughter (Petula Clark) wander into a valley where white and cullud folks are jes a-sittin' and a-singin' and a-waitin' for somethin' to happen.

He thought for a minute of the blaring rock and roll that his roommates were playing back at his room, stared at the heavy wooden doors of the library, then pushed them open and walked inside. The attendant looked up from his desk. "Is there someplace here where I can read?" the boy asked, fingering the book in his hand...
Three weeks ago, I thought today's game at the Stadium would be very embarrassing for Harvard. Cornell had a rock-hard defense and a potentially high-scoring offense. The potential has not been fulfilled. In its first two games, the Big Red got 17 points, but last week could manage only eight against a Pennsylvania team which yielded 13 to Brown. Harvard's defense has done well, despite some trouble with short passers like Domres and Holy Cross's Phil O'Neil. The offense moves the ball well, but occasionally has trouble crossing goal lines. 17-15 hasn...
