...rate, since Yovicsin is a Harvard employee, the University considers him a representative of Harvard, and Lord knows how the public would react to this association, however, with gambling. First of all, it is unfair to tag Yovicsin with the Harvard name in his outside employment, and secondly, why the hell must we worry so much about the people whose feathers will be ruffled by Yovicsin's new job? Yovicsin should be free to act as an individual, and Harvard should not let a small segment of public opinion negate that right...
...impossible, if performed a second time, seems mere repetition. Thus millions of Americans were content to sleep through the Apollo 12's landing on the moon. They missed a diverting incident. The Apollo 12, with a price tag of roughly $375 million, represents a refinement of hundreds of years of scientific experiment and theory, the most intricate hardware of a technological civilization. Yet when the television camera fritzed out on the lunar surface, Astronaut Alan Bean had a moment of atavism.

The government has only 2,100 inspectors to watch for illegal price increases, which Frenchmen sardonically call la valse des etiquettes (the price-tag waltz). The inspectors must police hundreds of thousands of retail establishments; the number of shoe stores alone is over seven times the total number of inspectors. Of the first 618 stores checked by inspectors in the Paris area, some 150 had raised their prices illegally...
