CHARLIE: I often wonder if maybe they didn't have the right idea back when we were undergraduates--men only. Isn't that old Barrington-Smythe coming out of the shower? They say he hasn't given Harvard a cent since they started electing female class marshals...
...result is that any businessman who owns a station can play it for high profits. St. Louis Broadcaster Bruce Barrington bought WEW for $50,000 in 1955, sold it to Franklin Broadcasting for $450,000 in 1961; Capital Cities Broadcasting recently paid $5,000,000 for New Jersey's WPAT, which had changed hands for $300,000 in 1954, and Westinghouse Broadcasting put up $10 million for New York City's WINS, which had brought only $425,000 in 1952.

William Edward Burghardt DuBois was born in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, on February 23, 1868, the year the Fourteenth Amendment was adopted.

Stud. 145, "The Flics," courtesy of R. G. Gardner. Harvard students are lucky to have such a pious faculty...
...supporting Edward M. Kennedy '54 in last fall's Senate campaign; and Seymour Harris has taken to playing Horatius at the bridge, criticizing even the mildest of President Kennedy's critics. Only David Riesman--who continues questioning our assumptions about American society (though more and more quietly)--and Barrington Moore, Jr.--who shrilly calls down the wrath of God upon bourgeois society upon the slightest provocation--could be called radicals. Harvard's physical scientists have been mute: increasingly dependent on government money for their research, their loyalties are perhaps bought along with their talents. Hence, excepting the abortive campaign...
