Adversity sometimes rewards its victims. For seven weeks, San Francisco's two major daily newspapers were shut down by a strike. There was a good chance that the dispute would be settled this week. Meanwhile, TV had undertaken a successful rescue program that promises to become a minor trend. During the newspaper blackout, KQED's public TV channel went on the air with a nightly one-hour Newspaper of the Air. And it was just that: a "city room" peopled with staffers from the striking papers who made up their feature and news "pages" before the camera...
...Larry Coryell, 24, Bassist Steve Swallow, 27, and Drummer Bob Moses, 20-have been together only since July. Already they have caught on not only with hard-core jazz buffs in clubs from New York to Los Angeles but also with rock-oriented youngsters on college campuses and in San Francisco's Fillmore Auditorium. Their concert last week in Manhattan's Carnegie Recital Hall confirmed that jazz has found two major new voices-Burton, with his soft, lacy textures and tumbling melodic lines, and Coryell, with his swatches of classicism, vaulting arpeggios and bluesy twangs...
...exposure came only after an inquisitive gambling-syndicate man from New York hired a private detective to learn how the young big spender was bankrolling his betting.

TRACK & FIELD THe Black Boycott At California's San Jose State College a few years back, Harry Edwards, now 25, was quite an athlete: captain of the basketball team, school record holder in the discus, and such a hot upi prospect in football that several pro teams made him offers. Edwards, a tall (6 ft. 8 in.), brainy Negro, passed them all up to become an assistant professor of sociology at virtually all-white San Jose because "scholarship was my longest suit." Not quite. For the past six months, Harry's long suit has been Black Power...
Nowhere are the senates more energetic than in the neighboring dioceses of San Francisco and Oakland. The San Francisco senate operates its own office independent of the chancery, has even set up a "reserved affairs" committee to handle the delicate problems of priests who get into legal or other trouble or who want to quit the ministry. In Oakland, Bishop Floyd Begin has approved ten of his senate's twelve recommendations to date, including one suggesting authorization of Masses in private homes...
