...fraternities of the '70s have taken on some new dimensions. Though parties and interhouse sporting events are still popular, there is a growing interest in community projects. Last fall Miami's Alpha Epsilon Phi and its sister sorority, Delta Zeta, held a "showerthon"-during which students took showers for 360 straight hours in an especially rigged bathtub on the street-and raised more than $1,500 for the American Cancer Society. At the University of Kansas, the Interfraternity Council has assumed sponsorship of the semiannual campus blood drive...

...Rauch in his suburban Santiago home. Leigh, 53, the most articulate of the junta's four members, showed Gate and Rauch a Soviet-made automatic rifle that, he said, was part of a leftist cache of weapons. The weapons were smuggled into Chile, presumably for use in "Plan Zeta," a supposed plot to murder top military leaders and rightists. The military did not learn of Plan Zeta's details, said Leigh, until after the coup, when the document was found in a safe in the presidential palace. Nonetheless, military intelligence had got wind of the general outlines...

...Plan Zeta." The body of Frank Teruggi Jr., 24, an economics student from Des Plaines, Ill., was found in a Santiago morgue last week. Though the military denied any complicity in his death, Teruggi's roommate, David Hathaway, 24, a sociology student, claims that carabineros broke into their Santiago apartment on Sept. 20. The police, who probably suspected the students of being foreign "extremists," ransacked the apartment and hauled them off to Santiago's National Stadium, where 5,000 political prisoners are still being held. The last time Hathaway saw his friend alive was when Teruggi was being...

Chile's strongmen attempted to counter the increasingly strident world criticism by releasing details of a Strangelovian plot that they say justifies their harsh treatment of leftists. The plot, which will be revealed in the U.N. this week by the Chilean Foreign Minister, is called "Plan Zeta." It reportedly called for the execution of 17,000 right-wing and moderate Chileans, including high-ranking military officers, former President Eduardo Frei, anti-Allende union bosses, justices of the supreme court, lawyers and businessmen. A government official who spoke to TIME's Benjamin Cate in Santiago last week said that...

...COMMUNITY was a lot like the old Yale, smelling of Hotchkiss and Zeta Psi. An ad hoc committee of Faculty and students was thrown together to find out what was going on outside the college gates, and started holding press conferences in William Sloane Coffin's living room. (The dean of the ad hoc press corps was a J. Press-outfitted Time reporter who later said that Coffin had been his Sacred Studies teacher at Andover.) The leaders of the group- Hersey and Coffin and Kenniston and Erikson- were the same people who always occupied centerstage at Yale...
