...concerned, as I have no fight with Hoving. A few years ago, he tried to back down on an agreement with me, and it took a court case to settle the matter in our favor. But I admire Hoving's ability and wish him success in his business. I do not know his motives in opposing our offer to buy the stock of Julius Garfinckel & Co., Washington, D.C., at a higher price than stockholders have ever had a chance to receive before.

So far, in less than two years of operation, ADELA has committed $22 million to 27 privately owned businesses in 13 Latin American countries.

Although the researchers' verdicts are months away, teachers and students already consider Project...
...much effort to meet undergraduates, that the only time they did appear in the dining-hall was for the weekly "long table" lunches when all the staff members sat together. So Chalmers abolished long table, over the objections of some of the less gregarious affiliates. And after his own success in teaching a House seminar, Chalmers has now organized some of the Winthrop tutors to teach a small course on current American social problems. This course will have the advantage of offering a broad, inter-departmental approach to various key issues and will give the tutors a chance to improvise...
