...shalls and shall nots of golf are pretty explicit. In the United States Golfers Association rule book there are 34 definitions, 41 rules with 120 sections and 156 subsections; for professional tournament play the P.G.A. makes six exceptions of its own. These cover everything that can happen to a golfer from clobbering a spectator with a ball (no penalty) to brushing away worm droppings while in a hazard (two strokes). But nowhere, as Arnold Palmer discovered in last week's $35,000 Phoenix Open, do the rules say anything about bumblebees...

They all belong to the same clubs, so business sentiment is pretty much developed through their exchange of ideas. Everybody was convinced by the President's stand on steel and the market drop that there would be a business recession. They began to adopt policies to protect themselves, such as cutting inventories and dropping unnecessary personnel." In effect, Stahl contends, businessmen took the steps they usually take after a recession...

...likely to meet. It passed because it allowed department discretition in determining who might be excluded from tutorial through failure to satisfy rock-bottom criteria. The method of liberalizing the cum loud degree suggested here would permit like discretion--although in this case the Faculty should add the explicit enjoinder that the departments be lenient and flexible in judging a student's plea for release from the thesis. Again, practices would doubtless be "arbitrary" and would differ considerably among the departments--just as some fields cheerfully accepted the spirit of the tutorial plan whole, and others barely admitted its existence...
