...MINNESOTA--Picked by the baseball writers to cop the flag, the Twins may run into pitching troubles. Dean Chance is a good bet to win 20, but his left-handed side-kick Jim Kaat has arm troubles and may not pitch this year.

Most Americans would be shocked to hear that a vast majority of Harvard students support draft resisters. In addition, a broad-based group would attract many students who shy away from anti-war and anti-draft organizations. These are the students who must be mobilized and counted in the ranks of the anti-war movement, if it is to break with its parochial tradition and blossom into a national...
