Jonathan Kozol's book, published today, is a book for those freshmen and us other adolescents who figure sometimes we're not getting the most out of life. Now Mr. Kozol, despite his current tenure of a Rhodes Scholarship, is no Norman Vincent Peale selling deodorant in the locker-room.

Newly slenderized (from 215 to 191 Ibs.) for the fray, Michael Vincent Di Salle, 50, former mayor of Toledo and onetime price stabilization chief, is raring to do what he just missed doing in 1956: beat the Republicans' low-gear, low-key C.

...cemetery where 8.000 mummies are on view, dating from the 16th century to as late as 1920, and including priests, professors, young virgins, even "an American consul with a big black mustache." The book is at its best in an account of how New York City's Mayor Vincent ("Mr. Impy") Impellitteri returned to his native village in 1951. With no blasphemous intent, Levi describes the visit in the way some of the simpler Sicilians might have seen it-as the story of the Saviour repeated in modern form...
