...campaign. Since 1917, Crimson editors had scattered through the country every fourth year, covering conventions, primaries, trends and candidates. The politics of the paper had shifted from conservative to liberal in the space of a few decades, and no longer did Crimson editors support the Republican ticket. John F. Kennedy '40 was a former Crimson editor, the holder of a recent Harvard honorary degree, and the sponsor of the bill to abolish the loyalty oath for NDEA loan applicants, which The Crimson has ardently supported. Although Kennedy's connection with the paper had been tenuous, at best--he never made...
Such is the scene when the Maryland Terrapins suit up for a home game. The spectacle is in marked contrast to the atmosphere at Maryland when Driesell arrived three seasons ago. Back then, the hapless Terrapins could barely sell a ticket, much less win a game. So Driesell staged his own gate-building, one-man show.

Nor the predictable chapters with titles like "How Lyndon Got on the Ticket" and "The Showdown with Khrushchev." Certainly not the all too facile celebration of J.F.K. as "insatiably curious," the "toughest" of the Kennedys, and compulsively competitive. These, in fact, are the very qualities, along with "style," that make Kennedy seem so cool, so tentative, so undefined in mind and heart, to today's Camelot revisitor...
Passengers themselves will probably wind up paying most of the cost of increased protection. Though federal authorities will not say how large a fare increase they might approve, FAA officials estimate that a boost averaging $1 a ticket would raise $180 million of the money needed. The airlines figure that they would then have to dig into their depleted coffers for yet another $120 million a year...
