...generations of Crimson writers had written reams of copy about Vietnam and Indochina, all of it angry and heartfelt and sympathetic to the people there. But we didn't say anything, and we haven't said anything about Indochina since. What could we say? After five years of editorial sweat and toil, how could we turn our backs on the Cambodians? And how could we praise them for policies that bordered, or seemed to border, on mass murder...
...shape. The irony, says Dr. James P. Knochel, a kidney-disease expert from the Veterans Administration Hospital in Dallas, is that these incidents are unnecessary. Heat stroke, he writes in the A.M.A. Journal, can be prevented if coaches and trainers use common sense and remember that active athletes must sweat in order to cool off and must quickly replace the fluid they lose.

He believes that people can lose weight and keep it off simply by "saying no to an extra piece of toast in the morning and an extra ounce of Scotch at night." He maintains that people can get into good condition and stay there by exercising as little...
Morehouse brushes aside such criticism. He argues that most exercise programs are simply too tough for the sedentary, while his regimen at least gets them up and moving. His argument is persuasive. Thousands of housewives, executives and even a few active elderly are following Morehouse's no-sweat system of exercise. Almost unanimously, they claim to be healthier than they were when they got no exercise...
