...there I was interested in learning how socialism was developed in North Vietnam, but I was told quite frankly that there simply wasn't enough time; there were too many scientific questions and there wasn't time to go into detail about how the society works. I suspect that they thought that without great explanation I wouldn't understand, and I suspect they were right. I gather that the party is very broadly based with something like a million members. What the relationship is between being in the party and being at the University is something I don't know...
What then can I say to you at the end of your college years? It must be, I think, that neither unreasoning zealotry nor despair is an acceptable attitude for Harvard men.

In the last two months though, the annual rate of increase has averaged more than 16%. Considering its fears of renewed inflation, the board is unlikely to go on pumping out money for long at quite that pace...
...would suspect the marriage rare in which both partners rise to worldwide prominence. Yet this week's cover story on Actor Elliott Gould marks the 42nd occasion that both a husband and wife, either current or ex, have appeared on the cover of TIME. Gould's estranged wife, Barbra Streisand, was featured in the April 10, 1964 issue...
