...least "average" from a nationwide point of view, your conclusion in Appendix 2, IV, is not to us a distressing one; and we have not, frankly, been disturbed by the fact that some neighboring institutions pay their Teaching Assistants more than we do. To be perfectly candid about this matter, we believe Harvard has unique educational advantages to offer its Teaching Fellows. Even less are we concerned with the "poverty line" figure of $3,000 (page 8), for the reason that this figure is irrelevant.

Reporters covering the bloody battles for Hills 881 near the Viet Nam Demilitarized Zone got little cooperation from the Marines. In some cases, Marine officers actually barred them from the battlefield. The reporters filed the usual protests, expected the usual excuses.

Some of the dances catch fire, notably a G.I. close-order drill done with smoking speed to syncopated shouts, and in a show that is more candied than candid, Leslie Uggams and Robert Hooks perform with unblemished, infectiously likable honesty. Apart from being lovely to look at, Uggams has a shy sly smile that burgles the theater house. She can cradle a song with her voice or rifle it toward the night sky like a tracer bullet...
