When he sat before the cameras on Capitol Hill (TIME. Feb. 14 et seq.),False Witness Harvey Matusow appeared to enjoy his role. He babbled about his stringless Yo-Yo. eagerly called himself a liar, and caused consternation among Congressmen, who thought he should be jailed for perjury. The legal problem: Could the Government, in prosecution for perjury, clearly establish specific Matusow lies, as distinguished from his occasional truths?

...mean to imply that Messrs. MacFarland, Rendall, Howes, Schitler, et. sl. are not prepared scholastically to cope with the Harvard. We only wish that Coach Vie Heyliger had prepared them in the little things before their journey to Colorado Springs. Perhaps he could have had the team invited to Martha Cook to learn the fine art of balancing a tea cup.
