...Students Association (GSA) several weeks ago asked Archie C. Epps III, dean of students, for permission to enclose a leaflet in registration packets. Though it amply documented the fact that other groups had been given similar permission in the past, Epps decided the time was propitious for a review of the rules. He discovered that all those other groups-controversial outfits like Phillips Brooks House and the Radcliffe Choral Society-had been given permission only because of a mistake. And, he decided, it was high time the mistake was corrected...
...Durkin is blunt, his opponent, Republican Warren Rudman, is downright ingenuous. The beneficiary of vigorous efforts by the National Conservative Political Action Committee, Rudman has watched his incumbent adversary crudely portrayed as a pro-busing, anti-prayer buffoon.

Declares his campaign literature: "Church puts Idaho first." The Senator claims that he has responded to 110,000 pleas for assistance since he was first elected 24 years ago. He takes credit for reclamation projects, rangeland improvements, recreation areas and dairy-farm price supports. He has kept the votes of many conservative businessmen by cutting red tape in Washington for them. He defends his support of the wilderness bill, which would set aside 2.2 million...
