Brooks's competition for the three seat came from Mike Livingston. If Harvard suffers another near-disaster against Northeastern today, Parker could well decide to shake up the roster, but this is considered unlikely...
Cult of Revolution. Evergreen's politics is as far out as its sex. It subscribes to the New Left roster of revolutionary heroes: Che Guevara, Castro, Malcolm X, Ho Chi Minh, Stokely Carmichael. It has published LeRoi Jones's furious diatribes against whites, mainly Jewish: "The little arty bastards talking arithmetic they sucked from the Arab's head."

The rest of the time he lives in Turin with his wife, the former Nina Ivanovna Firsova, a onetime Intourist interpreter, and their two children...
