...even in Singapore's muggy 85° weather, the chill was noticeable. Angry Black African members have vowed that they will pull out of the Commonwealth if Britain's Conservative government goes through with its announced plan to resume arms sales to South Africa's white-supremacist regime. In reply, Britain's Prime Minister Edward Heath rose in Singapore's harbor-front Convention Hall and declared bluntly that no member had the right "to sit in final judgment of the policies and the actions" of another. Alarmed by the collision course between the mother country...
...instructive to learn that the impediments to merger are not "simple contractual arrangements"; raher, they are serious and relatively open male supremacist attitudes on the part of the Harvard administration. I ask the Harvard community, in particular the Radcliffe administration, to join in helping to make the Harvard administrators uncomfortable with these attitudes. Even if their minds cannot be changed, they can be forced to restrain themselves. They should not be allowed to enforce discriminatory practices...
...prototypical Don Juan was proposed in legend as the enemy of God, and Translator Kenneth Cavender uses this phrase as the play's subtitle, instead of Moliere's "The Feast of the Statue."

To their present-day descendants, it means turning increasingly to the repressive strictures of apartheid to protect themselves against the nonwhite majority. Five times since 1948, the electorate has gone into laager by returning the white-supremacist, Boer-dominated Nationalist government to power, each time with increased majorities. Last week, for the first time in 22 years, South Africa's voters took a short step back toward the moderate center...
...develop it did. Two newsmen turned up the fact that Carswell had made a white-supremacist speech 22 years ago; Carswell recanted. Then it became known that he had been an incorporator of a Tallahassee golf club that went from public to private status in an apparent attempt to avoid desegregation; before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Carswell obfuscated the issue, bringing his candor into question. Critics pointed out that his decisions had frequently been reversed on appeal; there was little to be said in rebuttal. Some of the nation's leading legal scholars and practicing lawyers questioned his judicial skills...
