...long hair. The first suspicion was that Frazier was trying to prove that he was crazy. Not so, said Dr. David Marlowe, a University of California psychologist who has interviewed the defendant for a total of 75 hours over the past year, and who testified with Frazier's consent. Marlowe claimed that Frazier really wants to die in the gas chamber; in an exercise in double reverse psychology, he hoped that the court would assume he was deliberately trying to appear unbalanced, would see through the act and refuse to put him in a mental institution...
Payment of full tuition for one term allows a student to enroll in up to six courses during that term. Ordinarily he will not take more than four courses in any one term, but up to two additional courses may be taken with the consent of the student's advisor. Any student may take fewer than four courses (as few as one) if his advisor consents. In no case will a rebate be granted on tuition for taking fewer than four courses in one term, but a student may choose to enroll in one or more summer school courses...

DOMESTIC RELATIONS. A wife would no longer routinely take her husband's name, though she could choose to do so, or he could choose to take hers. If the couple retain different surnames, they would have to choose which name they wanted for the children. The age of consent for marriage would be the same for both sexes. Alimony would be available to either spouse, according to the financial facts of the individual case. Though child-custody laws that specify a preference for the mother would be illegal, in practice, a judge would still be free to decide...
...that government prosecutors will continue to question Ellsberg's academic colleagues in the Cambridge area, and equally likely that their goal is no better defined than general information-gathering for their own purposes. If that is the case, those who are subpoenaed to appear before the jury should not consent to testify, and it is worth noting that those who are approached by the FBI are under no legal obligation to talk. With the government's perversion of basic rights through indiscriminate use of the grand jury system, it seems only just that members of the academic community should refuse...
