...real thing. But what do you expect from upper-middle-class-socio-economic kids. Still, Henry Kissinger said that revolutions succeed when the people who are being revolted against do not take the revolutionaries seriously. So they took us seriously when we were only dealing with symbols. They sent Dartmouth students to jail for 30 days, and they fired on young people in Berkeley with shotguns filled with buckshot and birdshot and rock salt, and they killed one man--a white man. Black men died in colleges before, at Orange-burg last year and before and since. But hen they...
...guess is also that most people voted to return to classes because they were tired of striking. I would guess, too, that the first stadium meeting might have voted to suspend the strike if God hadn't sent us such a beautiful spring day.

There he was protectively stripped of his belt, shoes, glasses and pen, and was made to eat his dinner of ham and black-eyed peas from a paper plate with a plastic spoon...
...least one study belies the widely held idea that women with tranquil marriages cope well with separation whereas those with stormy relationships crack up. Psychiatrists at Washington's Walter Reed General Hospital observed the families of 23 Army noncommissioned officers sent abroad for average tours of 13 months. The investigators found that calm, older women, who seemed most deeply attached to their relatives or rooted to military routines, were often the most likely to give in to sadness and discouragement when their husbands left. Such wives, says Medical Corps Psychiatrist Laurence A. Cove, often seemed to try to suppress...
