Inside the Barrier. Back at An Khe (pop. 12,000), the division has created a home away from home. Last week business was booming in An Khe Plaza, the sanitary "Sin City" that houses bars and brothels under strict Army medical supervision (TIME, May 6). Highway 19, the east-west road that was once controlled by Communist ambushes, is now open all the way from Qui Nhon. In General Norton's tidy mess on "the Hill," a high-rise hummock that houses division headquarters, officers show up at dinner in gleaming boots and bright, gold-and-black scarves...
...transformation that Judaism suffered through in the 19th century. As dogmatic and cohesive a community then as Catholicism was before the council, Judaism offered its adherents a choice between Orthodoxy or apostasy. Now the Jew has a range of choice from secular indifference to Reform permissiveness to the strict Halakic observance of the Hasidim. Jews-and Protestants too-are aware that pluralism offers risks as well as rewards: indifferentism, sectarian quarrels, doctrinal anarchy. Yet just as Catholicism accepted the precedent of other faiths in adopting a vernacular liturgy and a belief in the primacy of conscience, it may come...
Solid, Seasoned Staff. Finding space for the columnists is one thing; filling the news hole is something else again. During the long strike, some of the Trib's best reporters found other work.

In the confusion of matching personnel demands, Conniff ended up with six more copyreaders than he needs...
After Ongania imposed strict new rules on Argentina's nine national universities last month, students rioted, six rectors resigned, and nearly half of the 2,000 teachers at the big (81,000 students) University of Buenos Aires said they would quit rather than take an oath of loyalty to the regime. Last week, when Ongania attempted to reopen the university under a new, pro-government rector, students paraded through the streets chanting "Books si, boots no!" Police arrested 85 of the rioters, and Ongania banned the country's student federation, which promptly called a nationwide strike...
...demands of prison life, says Gilkey, frequently exposed the strict Protestant ethic as legaiism wrapped in hypocrisy. Many of his fellow prisoners were critical of the compound's fundamentalist ministers. On principle, they refused to lend their canteen cards to heavy smokers-but they would not hesitate to barter the cigarettes they got from the Red Cross for extra tins of food. Far more popular were the Roman Catholic missionaries, who generally displayed a spirit of freedom from material wants that enabled them to play a creative, neighbor-helping role in the community...
