The stepping-up of the air raids into North Vietnam as well as the Administration's apparent intransigence in the face of the February peace feelers has tended to solidify opinion at Harvard against the war and has sharply changed the tenor of debate...

Since the McNamara incident, however, the tenor of protest has shifted. An increasing number of students--many of whom are not members of SDS, the University's leading New Left group--have resolved on an afirmative sort of protest.

Tenor Vyascheslav Radzievsky, as her husband, has a thin, weary voice, possibly because he forces it at top volume no matter what the circumstances. The many supporting roles are also sung unevenly, with the emphasis on dramatic display rather than well-placed singing...
