...fraudulent and fearsomely noisy theater of outrage. O'Horgan ceaselessly has his actresses jumping up and entwining their legs around any available male waist; and his notion of "new cinema" is to photograph scenes of idyllic love in slow motion and scenes of bestial passion through a red filter. Such effects make Futz about as avant-garde as a Head & Shoulders commercial...
Campus Fixture. Royal's Grapes of Wrath accent is no affectation. He grew up in Hollis, Okla. (pop. 3,006), on the edge of the state's dust bowl. He and his three brothers and one sister had to sleep with wet rags across their faces to filter the air they breathed. "We had a little place right on Highway 62," he recalls. "I used to stand in the front yard and watch the trucks go by, jammed with people heading for California...
...Hanoi signal of genuine deescalation, following a period of rethinking of strategy by Ho Chi Minh and his men. The allies generally assume that orders from Hanoi take around four weeks to filter down to Communist troops in the South. If President Nixon's eight-point Viet Nam proposal of May 14, which included a plan for mutual troop withdrawals, caused a reevaluation by the North Vietnamese, then orders implementing any changes would have reached Communist units by mid-June-just about the time the lull began. The theory is bolstered by the fact that a push, expected...
...their suits, the astronauts will be effectively prevented from contaminating the atmosphere. When they inhale, air will be drawn into their BIGs through a one-way valve; the air they exhale will be vented through a biological filter designed to block the passage of tiny organisms. Conversely, the frogman will be protected by a biological filter to screen the air that he inhales. Some scientists fear that these elaborate precautions-and those that follow-could be negated during the two brief intervals when the Apollo hatch is opened; alien organisms inside the spacecraft could take these opportunities to escape into...
First let us acknowledge that the fundamental problem is an inadequate supply of housing at a time when the demand is unusually high. But let's be precise about that. More luxury housing will not relieve the pressure on the low income housing market in Cambridge. The "Filter down" theory simply does not work here. More construction of subsidized low income housing will help and that is a public responsibility on which my staff is presently hard at work...
