...Frenzied Passion." Four steel strikers were convicted for their part in the Republic Steel Corp. bombing in Warren, Ohio six weeks ago. In sentencing them Warren's Common Pleas Court Judge Lynn B. Griffith rebuked them as much in the name of Labor as in the name of Law: "In your frenzied passion you have violated the law, insulted the dignity and decency of the State of Ohio, endangered the lives and property, and overwhelmed this peaceable and quiet community by your indefensive course of conduct. . . .

But he found 73-year-old Senior Trustee Warren, who commutes 140 mi. to Williamstown from his Boston office, interested not only in Williams but in Williamstown. This spring when the Greylock Hotel, the old hostelry across the street from Williams' fraternity row, went up for sale, Mr. Warren and four of his colleagues voted...
