Without an Unkind Word. On the Democratic side of the debate, Arkansas' William Fulbright, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, made a speech from the Senate floor, lauding the President for his "steadfastness and statesmanship." Nevertheless, Fulbright said flatly that any "expansion of the war would be most unwise." Without saying a single unkind word about the Communist aggressors, Fulbright urged a negotiated settlement that would include "major concessions by both sides," insisted that the U.S. must somehow "offer the Communists a reasonable and attractive alternative to military victory...
...bunch from Harvard in the picture, I would venture that the whole demonstration has hurt, rather than helped, their cause. Their altruistic motives are admirable, but I distrust their ulterior ones. The more objectionable members of the Lampoon sendoff should be chastised, but more because it is unkind to call an overweight child "fatty" because he overeats to compensate for emotional problems. Fifteen thousand able-bodied students putting in an eight-hour day could raise a minimum of $120,000--a sum which, turned to the proper channels, could inform and educate hundreds of thousands of people.

In the first quarter, with a third down and 28 yds. to go on the Bear 36, Unitas dropped back and looked for End Raymond Berry, who was zigzagging downfield. Now Ray Berry is no speedball; one of his legs is shorter than the other, and his eyes are so bad that he can barely see the ball without his contact lenses. No matter. Unitas stepped...
