...deeply troubled by the Harvard crisis, even more by those of his colleagues who did not share his sense of crisis, and perhaps most of all by his fear that he had not done all he could to stem that crisis and to save the university he loved so fully. Though he detested faculty politics, he organized and led a faculty caucus, despairing equally of having done too much and not enough. Though partisan, he was in a sense not political; he commanded the respect of colleagues of all persuasions whatever their opposition to his views. In no small measure...
...possible. After ten years of investigations, reviews, reversals and reappraisals, the CAB last week brought the hotly contentious Hawaii-route case to a characteristically unsatisfactory close. Where only Pan American, Northwest and United Airlines have competed in the past, eight carriers will now vie for a share of the market. As a result, profits on the Hawaii run are likely to be marginal at best. In anticipation of the award, Western Airlines alone added 35 planes to its fleet, and it blames the delay in the CAB ruling for 31% of the line's $5,100,000 loss during...
Steel executives disclaim any fixing. They argue that the job would have tied up such a large share of the facilities of U.S. Steel or Bethlehem that both companies had to add unusually large contingency costs to their bids. Defenders of the big firms also say that the smaller companies are using much low-cost Japanese steel and that the Port Authority loosened the specifications to enable the smaller firms to bid low. However, an Authority consultant maintains: "The number of tons, the character of the work, the size of the job, and the difficulty of erection were the same...
Preliminary Splutter. His best novels -Kipps, Tono-Bungay, Mr. Britling Sees It Through-have their share of belowstairs social comedy and wistful aspirations. But as an artist as well as a prophet, Dickson judges Wells "all brains and very little heart." In Boon, his wicked attack on Henry James, he may have been assaulting in James what was missing in himself: infinite care and moral responsibility...
There are two reasons to see Stiletto: Actors Joseph Wiseman and Patrick O'Neal. It is a rococo and frequently incoherent gangster yarn extracted like a rotten tooth from an old Harold Robbins novel. Stiletto seems to have been written only to take a share of the profits made by such stylish thrillers as Point Blank and Bullitt. And it quickly becomes obvious that Director Bernard Kowalski (who also made Krakatoa, East of Java) is not up to that sort of competition. Judged on sheer acting talent, however, Wiseman and O'Neal are equal to almost anything...
