...good for Johnny, fourth of the seven children born to Ray and Carrie Cash. From a three-room shack in Kingsland, Ark., the hard-pressed Cash family moved to Dyess, Ark., in 1935, when a New Deal colony opened up there. Like the other landless farmers who gathered in search of their American dream, they ended up with 20 acres, a house, barn, chicken coop, a mule, a cow and a plow. The work was hard, the income meager. But, insists Johnny, "I was never hungry a day in my life. Aw, sometimes at supper we had to fill...
...Moral Search. Dave, the numbers king, is a forebear of today's black radicals, a sort of "new Negro" whose drive for power and respectability is born of pride, anger and an awareness of his heritage. At best, his racket can bring him power only at the cost of respectability, and even that power is sharply circumscribed...
...After a search ranging from the River Po to the Bay of Naples, the carabinieri found their culprit right at home in Porto d'Ascoli.

While free on bail, Lanciotti had been given permission to go on producing wine and had quietly siphoned...
...equally true that a university cannot function when angry minorities repeatedly resort to coercive tactics. That is the case even without backlash from the outside, which if course aggravates the situation. To put the point offensively, serious and sustained intellectual work is incompatible with too militant a search for immediate social justice. So much the worse for the universities, some might say. Since, in the real world, efforts by militant moral vanguards to impose a new moral code on an unwilling population have generally led to massive cruelty, there are stronger grounds than mere academic self-interest for rejecting...
...Changing the Corporation's method of election (for example, by having a student-faculty search committee) or its character of membership (by having faculty or recent graduates serve limited terms) face no legal restrictions. They only state laws restricting the Governing Boards apply to the Overseers--only alumni can vote, but faculty and administrative officers cannot vote for or serve on the Board. A recent article on this page indicated that--however foolhardy it would be politically to ask politicians now to consider matters affecting a university--it might be safe in legal terms to petition the legislature to remove...
