...essence of the 1960s must be very different from that of Wessis of the same age - less flower power and protests against the Vietnam war, more Soviet tanks rolling into Wenceslas Square to crush the Prague Spring, and the numbing Soviet leadership of the Brezhnev era. Christian Wulff, 46, Governor of Lower Saxony and one of the most prominent young leaders in the Christian Democrat party, told reporters last month: "We need to look at the 1968 generation with a greater degree of sophistication.

Chouinard--who is small and tightly built, with the forearms of the blacksmith he once was--wears green canvas sneakers with holes, a pair of yellowed sweat socks, denim shorts, a beaten cap, a Patagonia vest, of course...
Donnal M. Wulff, assistant professor at Brown University, said she applied for two different grants at Harvard in hopes of being given a chance to make one of the University's library of Indian studies. Wulff said she will tech a freshman seminar on musical and dramatic devotion in Bengal, and added she is "looking forward to having the time and the facilities for research...
