East Germany has condemned the midi as unsocialistic, but the women of Warsaw and Wroclaw have taken to it with a vengeance. In the shipyards of Gdansk and Szczecin, long hair pokes out from under the green hard hats of younger workers. All over Poland, Communist Party youth clubs reverberate to the latest rock sounds. To be sure, the scene in Cracow is vastly different from the one in California, and when a young Pole talks about turning on, he is probably referring to Radio Warsaw's Third Program, which features hits from the West. A quarter-century after...
...Warsaw is not alone." Shouting down professors who called for calm, they cut classes and jostled with police the next day. In Lublin, at the Communist bloc's only Roman Catholic university, several students were arrested after clashing with police.

Official West German maps label Silesia, Pomerania and East Prussia Zurzeit unter Polnischer Verwaltung (temporarily under Polish administration), and Germans still refer wistfully to Wroclaw as Breslau.

...choices offered them. Though no real opposition party is allowed, voters are permitted to pick from a slate of state-approved candidates, most of whom must be Communist. In Cracow, a Catholic candidate won more votes than Communist Premier Josef Cyrankiewicz, who was on the same list, and in Wroclaw, a Catholic got more support than Gomulka's Foreign Minister Adam Rapacki...
