...Harrison's defensive strategy was suspect, his offensive approach was no better. Two years ago Harrison tried to install a new offense for every opponent. All that this approach achieved was confusion among his own ball players, and it did little to baffle the opposition. This year Harrison installed one basic offense. However, the new approach was little better than the old, because it only served to freeze last year's high scorer Jim Fitzsimmons out of the offensive picture or resulted in low percentage shots from the deep corner. At other times the offense degenerated into a pass...
...called Decree Law 180, which empowers the government to in stall a "commissar" in each faculty. These are usually retired generals with few if any academic credentials; they operate a network of student informers and plainclothes policemen who check illegal student organizations and inform on teachers suspected of "subversive" lectures.

Rather than return emptyhanded, the raiding party blew up suspected fedayeen installations before they went home...
...motivated or lacked natural ability for science, or for some other reason did not come up to a reasonable level, as judged by national standards. I doubt that inflating the grades in the course could be hidden from the medical schools for more than a year or two, and suspect the practice would boomerang. Your editorial states that a high grade in Chem 20 "insures" that a student will get into medical school; if this is so, it suggests that medical schools now have considerable respect for our standards and honesty...
