...Judge Sirica to referee this week the first full round in the battle for the White House tapes, now under subpoena by both the Senate Watergate committee and Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox.

...prove that they were down, but far from out, the editors produced a large, and very impressive issue to commemorate The Crimson's own 70th birthday. An editorial on that day expressed the paper's prevailing liberalism, and its firm belief in the triumph of democracy. A group of former Crimson editors contributed their thoughts on the state of the world. That same arrangement was closely paralleled in an issue, a few months later, when a group of Harvard Faculty members presented their views of the war and the post-war world. This was the last issue of the regular...
