These three simple-to-enforce rules would provide an excellent framework for extra-curricular activities. Undergraduate groups ought not to be compelled to act according to what the Dean's Office thinks is in the best interests of Harvard. The groups do not exist to further the ends of the Dean, they exist to further the ends of their members. So long as they are genuinely Harvard in character, with financial responsibility and freedom of action, there is no reason why they should be the responsibility of, or subject to, the Dean's Office...
Needed: Definition. At the core of the European jam was Germany. The Western powers had never really agreed among themselves on a policy toward the new West German Republic. Within the loose framework of the occupation statute (TIME, April 18), they floundered between a policy that would build up West Germany as soon as possible (which by & large is the U.S. aim); and a suspicious policy of keeping West Germany's sovereignty and industrial potential in stringent check (which is the French aim). Western policy needed new, sharp definition, particularly since the Red puppet state in East Germany...
Equal Rights. The final Dutch-Indonesian agreement would set up the Republic of the United States of Indonesia, a federation with a constitution much like that of the U.S., in the general framework of a Netherlands Indonesian Union, much like the British Commonwealth.

Queen Juliana, as head of the Union, would embody "the concept of voluntary and lasting cooperation between the partners." All Dutch forces would leave Indonesia within six months of transfer of sovereignty (to take place not later than...
...second offering, a farce called "Harlequenade," seems to derive from the plays done by the Commedia del Arts in 13-15th century Italy. The actors then had no scripts, but improvised from a stock situation. An analogy would hold between one of these situations and the framework of a rehearsal of "Romeo and Juliet," in which Mr. Evans and Miss Best, as a famous and fabulous theatrical couple, play the title parts between miscellaneous interruptions in the course of the rehearsal. The play parodies the ingrown frame of mind often found in the theater where the world would seem...
...whole intent. Like his earlier taut and febrile novels (Appointment in Samarra, Butterfield 8), A Rage to Live is shot through with enough gratuitous sex to get itself talked about. But unlike them it attempts the kind of large-scale social portraiture which could easily be the framework of the Great American Novel. Rage is not that. Its wide-lensed look at U.S. small-city life in the first two decades of this century treats the reader to some shrewd but merely surface revelations. Readers will not be surprised to learn that Fort Penn politicians made shady deals and occasionally...
