Long the course shopper's Via Condotti, the Fine Arts Department is offering at least two bargains this autumn. The first is Fine Arts 152a (Tu. Th. at 11), billed in the catalogue as Prof. Ackerman's course, but placed at the last moment in the worthy hands of young, brilliant Everett Fahy. Fahy teaches Fifteenth Century Italian Art with a sympathy for both his subject and his students. For Low Country fans, there is Prof. van Regteran Altena, who wowed his first class by delivering a forty-minute lecture in verse (on Seventeenth Century Dutch Art). The rest...
...majors have long suffered from the wonk image, but all this time they have been quietly laughing the last laugh and taking Ec 101 (Tu. Th. 2:30-4:00), The Economy of the United States, and Ec 108 (M. W. F. at 9, Spring Term), Economic Development and Underdevelopment.

Larger than the Russian TU-144 SST and carrying about half as many passengers as the American version, the Concorde is scheduled to make its first flight on Feb. 28, 1968.

For this reason he declared himself responsible for all the misfortunes afflicting his nation, whether they be war, famine, or any other catastrophe, since these are "thien tai" (disasters from heaven). At such a time he had to pacify the "anger from the palace of heaven" (tran loi dinh) by confessing...
...Jamal's Heat Wave, bop about the bars in their "shades" (sunglasses) and talk "trash" (shoot the bull). The girls of Soulsville -many of them dark-skinned Cambodians or the daughters of French Senegalese soldiers-are less costly and usually less comely than their sisters on white-dominated Tu Do Street near by. The "in" spot in Soulsville is the L. & M. Guest House, a bar-restaurant and record booth run by balding, beer-bellied "Johnny" Hill, 35, a New Orleans Negro and ex-merchant sailor whose menu of "soul food" runs from No. 4 (turnip greens) through...
