Such eccentric arrangements obviously have no meaning for the vast majority of people, except perhaps as symptoms of an underlying malaise. Thus, while some sociologists and anthropologists make their plans for the reordering of the social structure, most are more immediately concerned with removing?or at least alleviating?the stresses of the nuclear family...
Psychologist Richard Parson, for one, believes that the increased emphasis on the role of the family "as an agent for human development and personal growth" will again make the family important in the field of education. "Parents will not necessarily teach the children," he says. "That is probably quite unlikely." But the family itself may become a learning unit, stimulated by new programs and new processes (like cartridge TV) that are even now being introduced into the home by industry. This, he feels, will help strengthen the nuclear family "by involving people in all kinds of interesting mutual experiences...
WIDE RECEIVERS. J.D. Hill, Arizona State, 6 ft. 1 in., 197 lbs.; and Elmo Wright, Houston, 6 ft., 195 lbs. Hill has all the makings of the ideal pro receiver: the speed, the moves, the spring, the hands and the power to blast free after a catch.

Hauling in 58 passes for ten touchdowns this season, Hill was the leading scorer in the Western Athletic Conference. Wright, as they say, "is one of those guys...
...will climb next year, probably exceeding 6% during some months before tapering off later in 1971. The members of TIME'S Board of Economists foresee relatively high unemployment, coupled with about a 3)% rate of real economic growth and close to a 4% rate of inflation. That would make for a total of something more than 7% growth in the gross national product, lifting it from $977 billion this year to $1.045 trillion or $1.055 trillion next year...
Nixon has tried redefining his targets to make victory easier. A year ago, his closest economic aides said that they were aiming to reduce the rate of inflation to 14% or 2% by the end of 1971. Now they say that 3%, or perhaps a bit more, would represent price stability. Until lately, Administration officers have defined "full employment" as a 4% rate of joblessness. Recently they began talking of getting down to "the 4% zone," and at his last press conference, Nixon implied that anything "lower than 5%" would be a commendable showing...
