...increasing number of courses in the Government and Economics Departments were designed with the School in mind. All courses were formally listed as being in the Ec or Gov departments. "Classes were held all over the lot. I taught them wherever I could beg, borrow or steal some space," Price says...
...building on Boylston Street represents a major footstep for Bok. The space there will almost double the level of activity that the school had last year in Littauer Center. A five year plan calls for student enrollment to reach a peak of 500 and the addition of seven executive programs (short intensive programs for people already high on the ladder of government) to the three now in existence. The faculty will increase from 30 to 50 members and the number of research programs from one (the Center for Science and International Affairs...
...Charles River was another obstacle for the tunnel-builders. Instead of burrowing under it, they chose to build over it--by means of the Weeks Bridge.

Weill composed this one-act opera in 1948 expressly for amateur groups. Stage Space, a neophyte Brookline company behind this production, is an amateur group in a technical sense only; the "Phoenix" praised the competence and the excellent voices of the performers. The story tugs at the tear-ducts, with events ending unhappily for two star-crossed lovers in Appalachia. But the music is superb, utilizing old folk songs and ballads; most viewers will recognize...
