Boston is one of the few cities in the U.S. that allows teachers to use corporal punishment. Kozol charges that teachers sometimes employ bamboo rattans to whip the hands of their Negro charges with sadistic delight: "There are moments when the visible glint of gratification becomes undeniable in the white teacher's eyes...
Thus far, Metherell has successfully taken black and white sound pictures of a model submarine, a model aircraft carrier, an airplane silhouette, the letter R and various geometric shapes. Using low frequencies, acoustical holography could explore for oil and mineral deposits at depths of several miles. Archaeologists could use higher frequencies to search for buried cities. Oceanographers may well map the ocean floor in the same way. And at frequencies between 1 and 10 megacycles, diagnostic holograms may some day chart not only tumors, but soft areas of the body-such as muscles, blood vessels and brain tissue-that...
...empty hall was turned over to the U.S.O.; hot-dog stands and coffee bars were set up, and seats were ripped out to make room for bowling alleys.

And by those criteria, San Diego State is also "small"-although it has 18,000 students, the use of a 50,000-seat stadium, and a football team that supplied five players to the pros last year. Yet S.D.S., which is riding a 23-game winning streak, finds Waynesburg and Westminster pressing it hard in the polls for the unofficial 1967 small-college championship...
