Some of the urgency and volume of the student voice is a result of the Scheffler Report, which after exploring and rejecting the notions that the School's functions be farmed out to the other departments in the University, that it train only academicians, that it became a research institute with no students, or that it train only teachers, decided that the special challenge of the Graduate School of Education is to "identify and feed into the center of the University the live problems of school and community, and concurrently, to concentrate all relevant energies of the University upon...
Lyndon Johnson has requested $310 million to train 700,000 students in fiscal 1967, but Powell's committee would like to give him $400 million to train 845,000. Exhilarated by the program's success last summer, the President announced plans to turn Head Start into a year-round program for 350,000 needy children, only to discover that it would have cost three times as much money as was available.

His chest pains long forgotten, Coach Blake surveyed the huge silver trophy. "Take it to the train," he ordered, "and fill it with champagne...

Where the Marx Brothers once chopped up a train (in Go West) and fueled the engine with the kindling in order to keep going, Chekhov's pinched landowners would rather die than chop down their forests. They have champagne tastes-intellectually and spiritually-on vodka incomes. Their hearts are even emptier than their purses. The title character of Chekhov's first full-length play, a man in paralytic despair, candidly performs a self-autopsy: "I haven't the heart to believe in anything. I hope...
