There were many heroes, but two veterans especially stood out. Tom Nicosia, captain for the second year, netted two goals including the game winner. The rest of his play was also exceptional, and he worked hard to keep up the team spirit. "Nic was super. It's the best game I've ever seen him play," midfielder Jim Anderson said afterwards...

...guerrilla war in the south. In reply, South Korea maintains an armed force of 600,000, the world's fifth largest. Despite Seoul's complaints that its U.S.-supplied weapons are becoming increasingly outmoded, there is no doubt about the army's fighting spirit: the two ROK divisions in Viet Nam have compiled an impressive record. The army is backed up by the 2,500,000-man Homeland Reserve Force, formed last year and composed of army veterans who undergo intensive drills at least twice a week at their factories or offices.

Feuer refers to Camus as the philosopher of "alienation" and a generational hero. Feuer does not cover the cult of Che Guevara and Regis DeBray, though one passage recognizes the role of Fidelism in radical student culture. The spirit of Che synthesized all the ingredients of the New Left: an anti-American intellectual who galvanized the masses in one country and suffered glorious martyrdom in another.
