...first, the half-hour television film The Passover seems to be one of those instructive seasonal documentaries. A Jewish family is sitting down to a typical Passover Seder. An announcer tells the story of the Exodus, the Jews' anguish in Egypt and their struggle to leave, and that terrible night the Angel of the Lord passed by the houses of the Jews to strike down the first-born sons of their Egyptian masters. On the traditional Seder table are the symbolic foods: the salt water and bitter herbs, reminders of the time of bondage; the roasted lamb, recalling...

Daniel Berrigan, a director of Cornell United Religious Work, succeeded. In a two-hour appearance at a "freedom Seder" held at Cornell over the pre-Passover weekend, he spoke to some 10,000 students gathered for an "America Is Hard to Find" festival. Apparently because federal agents wanted to avoid a student riot, he was allowed to slip away. The following Tuesday his brother was to appear with Dave Eberhardt at an "Up from Under" rally at St. Gregory the Great-until the FBI stepped in.
