...some reason, perhaps because of my innate optimism. I envisioned a conclusive and factual account of the February 14-16 National Student Conference Against Racism and the National Student Coalition Against Racism in my first glance at Edmond Hersey's March 5th article "Racism and the Left." Though Mr. Horsey may have meant well, and his statement to me during the conference that he was not speaking to me for the purpose of writing a Crimson article leads me to doubt the sincerity of his good intentions, he failed to capture the essence of the conference, the efforts made...

Michael Gordon's direction is nothing special, and the rest of the cast is mediocre in this one-man show...
...became the most successful French painter of the 18th century, the favorite of Louis XV and his mistress Madame de Pompadour. Born in 1703, Boucher lived through the climax of the ancien régime and died less than two decades before it did. "In him," wrote Jules and Edmond de Goncourt, in their great defense of rococo art published almost a century after the death of Boucher, "French 18th century taste was manifest, in all the peculiarity of his character. Boucher was not only its painter but its chief witness, its chief representative, its very type...
