...Viet Nam-even if the various journeys were not specifically connected. The White House insisted that Kissinger's latest jaunt was merely a follow-up to the Peking summit and would deal with "the normalization of relations" between China and the U.S. But White House Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler added tantalizingly that the discussions would not deal with "routine matters," and high Administration officials said privately that there was definitely a link between Porter's return to Paris and Kissinger's return to Peking. Another Nixon emissary, globetrotting former Treasury Secretary John Connally, meanwhile, will...
...Until last fall, Joe Eszterhas, 27, was a bright and sassy reporter for the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Then he was fired for having written a piece in Evergreen Review that criticized his paper, himself and all others concerned with the merchandising of Ronald Haeberle's exclusive photographs of the My Lai massacre. * Eszterhas, backed by the American Newspaper Guild, protested the dismissal, and the case went to Arbitrator Calvin L.

Nerve Circuits. Worsley's sort of explanation and his claims of success hardly satisfy the scientifically minded. Dr. Pang Man, director of research at the Northville (Mich.)

...Sacramento last week, the California legislature struggled to assemble a final compromise on the 1972-73 state budget, 10.9% of which is devoted to higher education. Governor Ronald Reagan, who came into office in 1967 making no secret of his scorn for the liberals of the educational establishment, has recommended that the state put up a total of $382 million, some $58 million short of U.C.'s request, while the legislature's senate and assembly put the figure at $390 million and $395 million respectively. For the first time in three years, Reagan's budget offered...
What is documented by the display is the struggle of designers to free themselves from their traditional limbo, somewhere between architecture and interior decoration. More and more, design strives to be active: its tutelary gods are no longer Chippendale or the Bauhaus, but Buckminster Fuller, Marcuse and Ronald Laing. The thrust of designers like Ettore Sottsass, Gae Aulenti, Marco Zanuso and the "Archizoom" group is not to decorate the psychic space around us but to extend and question it. This means a critical approach to social patterns, which starts with the language of shape...
