The Car Book, a popular 68-page pamphlet that lists the safety features and maintenance costs of 81 U.S. and foreign automobiles, is not being reprinted even though it is one of the most successful publications ever offered by the Government (1.5 million copies distributed in one year...

"As it stands now, the constitution has no viable means of insuring minority representation...

Members of the Faculty Council, which simplifies and then forwards proposals to the full Faculty, are predicting that 1981-82 could be unusual for the very dearth of controversial issues that could confront the Faculty. Though the year is bound to contain some surprises--like the fairly sudden emergence of last year's technology transfer issue--the preliminary Faculty agenda looks about as empty as Ronald Reagan's White House in August...
