...West Germany-less than an hour's drive from U.S. bases in Germany and only two hours from NATO headquarters in Brussels. Most of Luxembourg's borders are untended even by customs officials, and its pine forests offer thousands of safe passageways to anyone who wants to saunter into another country. Those forests also function as hiding places for the "dead-letter boxes" that spies use to pass information...
...Harvard of the West" turned out to be little more than a conservative country club run in the guise of a university, one of the nation's best in fact.

Plain jeans are no longer adequate for even the plainest Jane: now the enthusiast can saunter into an expensive boutique like New York City's Billingsley, be interviewed by freelance Costume Designer Linda Sampson, hand her a battered set of denims and return two weeks later to pick up a sort of patchwork personality portrait, sewn together by Linda for $200 or so.

Without the full faculty subsidy those allegedly professional committees within PBH which do enjoy a modicum of success will cease to function. Next June when the members of the Class of 1946 saunter towards the Union in their tuxedos on their way to the Reunion Concert at Symphony Hall and confront Riverside residents and their children protesting in the Yard, they will ask 'what is the commotion" and perhaps the Administration will provide the answers...
