...time for the movement to abandon sexual politics for real politics. U.S. women have less political representation than their counterparts in many other Western democracies, and indeed less than they used to have. Maine's Margaret Chase Smith is the sole female Senator, and there are only eleven women compared with 422 men, in what New York Congresswoman Bella Abzug has derisively called the House of Semi-Representatives (she was also referring to its small number of young people and members of minority groups). In appointive positions, the record is even worse: women hold only...
...Chase Manhattan Bank promotion features an avuncular, sneaker-shod hippo working a computer. An ad for Irving Trust's computer service shows a wood penguin holding a high silk hat. The message: "Lease or Buy-Which suits you best?" Then there is the crane standing on one foot in an ad for Boeing Computer Service, which asks: "Looking for stability in computer services?"

At the same time, student activists are switching from radical protest to privatism, piety and politics. After examining such trends across the country, TIME National Education Correspondent Gregory H. Wierzynski sent this report...
Going into the Belmont, the tune had changed. Reggie Cornell, the trainer of Eastern Fleet, would not even enter his horse. "Not me," he said. "I'll let somebody else chase that cannon-ball." Nevertheless, a lot of somebodies decided to try-especially after a skin rash and an infected hoof caused Cañonero to miss two days of training. By post time, the field had grown to 13; nine of the horses Cañonero had never met before, including a speedy bay colt named Pass Catcher who had registered two firsts and a second...
