Thus three faces of Ted Kennedy emerge in the campaign. There is a glamorous Ted Kennedy the candidate, personable Ted Kennedy joking about touch football in his car between campaign stops, and defensive Ted Kennedy, the uncomfortable target of reporters. Ted is impatient and evasive when challenges on specific weaknesses. He claims inexperience is no issue, has no convincing answer to his failure to debate with Lodge and Hughes, refuses to discuss Presidential influence in the campaign.

...familiar target of charges made by activity heads over the past five years is the Student Calendar. At present the Calendar serves as a free or low cost bulletin board for all University activities. It also attempts, with varying degrees of success, to be a house organ for the HSA, a guide to Boston, and potentially a magazine.

But in any area other than the publishing...
