...measure, the Guard's performance was appalling. National Guard armored personnel carriers rumbled through the streets blasting out street lights with .50-cal. machine guns and spraying down suspect buildings. Seeing a Negro man walk by, one Guardsman, rifle at the ready, ordered: "You get out of here, boy. Faster, boy. You run out of here." The man had no choice but to accept the humiliation and jog off. A couple and their three friends were ordered to lie on the ground, and then were threatened by more than a dozen Guardsmen armed with automatic weapons. Lieut. General John...
...variety of musical instruments, but Aeolian has stuck to its specialty and produced some 700 kinds of pianos, more than any other company. For all its wide range, there is no compromise with tradition. As one Aeolian executive describes piano-making: "Anything different from what Grandpa built is suspect...
...Game is more than just an effective anti-war movie. I suspect that one reason it provoked such criticism is that it is really about the type of society which would play the game.

Stunted Development. Some church historians now contend that the repressive measures of Pius X (who was proclaimed a saint in 1954) stunted Catholic intellectual development for a generation. Biblical experts were particularly suspect. For years Catholic exegetes were required to abide by the conservative judgments of the Pontifical Biblical Commission, set up at the beginning of the century; among its dicta was the ruling that Moses authored the Pentateuch-even though it contains an account of his death clearly penned centuries later. Not until Pius XII's 1943 encyclical, Divino Afflante Spiritu, were Catholic Biblicists able to study Scripture...
Structural Flaws. Congress has also begun to suspect-quite correctly-that something fundamental is amiss. New Jersey Representative William B. Widnall, ranking Republican member of the House Banking Committee, last month voiced fears that financial strains may inflict "permanent damage" on the housing industry and "lead to an intolerable housing shortage in the years ahead." Last week in the Senate, Alabama Democrat John Sparkman's housing subcommittee resumed what promises to be a lengthy search for cures. Most of the witnesses agreed that mortgages have become the chronic invalid of finance because of structural flaws in the mortgage market...
