...Your advocacy of "police calm" in the face of "verbal provocation," "filthy abuse," and "language, however violent" is irresponsible and ridiculous. To justify such acts in the name of the First Amendment is just absurd. Surely you must know that the law prohibits the use of obscene language in public places, disorderly conduct, violent language, and interfering with a police officer in the exercise of his duty. You might as well defend the shouting of "Fire!" in a crowded theater...

More people than Dean Rusk are due credit for the past decade's debacle--lots...
Radcliffe apparently doesn't understand that it has a labor problem on its hands that can only get worse. The near-strike of last week should show the College that it must eliminate its wasteful use of labor. One Harvard student pointed out that the girls won't be happy about having to cook for themselves. But even cooking beats not being able to afford Radcliffe...
