After an eight-month study, an Army commission has proposed that the wording of the code be changed to "nor tolerate such acts by other cadets." The aim is still to condemn the foul deed, but now also to keep a more open mind toward the individual who committed it. This would give the cadet honor boards greater leeway in deciding punishment and thus enable an offender to remain at the Point with a chance to prove himself.

...West Germans lavished such adulation on a foreign visitor as they did last week on Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev. But the messages left by the two travelers, their visits separated by 26 years of history, were nearly as disparate as the directions from which they arrived.

He renounces the bright palette, the easy thrills, to aim for a psychodrama with the force of myth. He creates a Gotham City that looms like a rube's nightmare of Manhattan. He strips the Bruce Wayne legend down to its chassis, dumping Robin and the goony rogues' gallery. This is a face-off between two men in weird masks: one in a leathery black item...
