...much as anyone, it was Castro himself who ensured Che's defeat by leaving him to wander in Bolivia with neither the proper material nor moral support. James ascribes that betrayal to their longstanding rivalry. Had Che succeeded in leading a continental revolution, he would have emerged the greater leader, and might well have jeopardized Castro's future position. For his part, Che, as the apostle of Communist revolution in Latin America, had little choice but to go to Bolivia. Concludes James: "He needed a revolution far more than the revolution needed...
...footsteps. And where they could not follow, a tape recorder did. A helpful delegate carried one in his pocket to Nixon's meeting with some Southern delegations. The results made the biggest scoop of the week. Nixon assured the Dixie politicians that he had given only grudging support to the federal open-housing law, and felt such matters ought to be left to local decision. He would appoint "strict constitutionalists" to the U.S. Supreme Court. The thrust of his remarks seemed to indicate that he had made a shift to the right...
...view of politics, Broder rarely overstates a case or falls into the common journalistic trap of discovering conflict where none, or little, exists.

They were also speaking for all the lonely Negroes in remote Southern jailhouses, the people for whom the presence of lawyers like Sobol has often meant the difference between life and death. Early in the civil rights movement, Southern lawyers tacitly accepted visiting lawyers. Few local white lawyers wanted to defend Negroes anyway...
...effect on the American male. Citing a 1967 American Medical Association journal's psychiatric report claiming that sexual roles are "being reversed," Packard says that "many young males not only feel their adequacy threatened, but are confused as to what the modern world expects of them." He found support for this analysis at an Eastern women's college, where a girl revealed that "most of the men I have dated in the past year have made overtures at going all the way but are not disappointed if you refuse...
