Deep Shock. Strictly speaking, it may be premature to use the word defeat. Still, no matter how the war ends, it is bound to entail some degree?perhaps a high degree?of American loss. What Brewster calls "this wound" will probably provoke deep shock among those many Americans who have nothing in their experience to prepare them for national failure. Instead of making pronouncements about not being the first U.S. President to lose a war, instead of faulting the opposition at home for his difficulties in Southeast Asia, Nixon would perform a better service by preparing the country...
...adheres to a program in which he believes, but which is not supported by the majority of his Faculty. he faces a continuing crisis of confidence. If he bows to the opposition and becomes the administrator of policies which he does not really support, his service as Dean is bound to become increasingly frustrating. The only solution is for Dean and Faculty to join in a patient and unremitting search for common ground and the accommodations which avert internal cleavages and mitigate differences between the Faculty and the Administration. It remains our conviction that in the course of this search...

Many U.S. tourists were unwilling to put up with the delays, and many Mexicans, outraged at being searched "to the skin," joined a boycott against nearby U.S. cities. Officials in hard-hit San Diego were worried that without grass, kids would turn to hard drugs. In towns on the Mexican side, where trade was off 40% to 75%, businessmen were near panic.

There is little likelihood that they will get their way; Rome has set the agenda. But no such proscriptions bound the rebellious European Assembly of Priests, whose 80 delegates began six days of meetings last week...
...light waves supplies much of the solar heat that determines the earth's weather. Astronomers use slight, variations in the sun's ultra-violet spectrum as clues to the chemical and physical reactions goingon at various depths in the sun. By comparing satellite measurements of invisible radiation with earth-bound records of the sun's visible light, scientists should be able to predict some of these reactions and their effects on earth's weather and communications. Space travelers also need accurate forecasts to warn them of outburst of dangerous radiation...
