...could be faced on their eastern border with an even more threatening force than the Pakistan army. There is a real danger that leadership of the guerrilla movement in East Pakistan could pass from the shattered Awami League into the hands of the Naxalites, the ideological cousins of the Maoist extremists who have terrorized Calcutta and other pockets of eastern India. What the Indians fear is an attempt to reunite India's West Bengal with Pakistan's East Bengal, which have strong cultural and linguistic ties that could some day transcend the religious differences...
...Nakauchi admits, will take many years - so many that "I am constantly reminded of Mao's Long March." In order to shorten the time, Nakauchi intends to open a "university" for his store chiefs by year's end.

...weeks ago, unknown radicals apparently decided to protest the suspension of a Maoist library worker sympathetic to suspended Professor H. Bruce Franklin (TIME, March 15). They sabotaged the library by removing or damaging 11,000 catalogue cards, pulling books from shelves and pouring honey on them. Since then, a different, previously unheard-of radical group has claimed credit for the fire-bombing of an empty patrol car belonging to university police. No group has yet admitted vandalizing a campus drugstore, firing armor-piercing bullets at an electric power transfer station on campus, or setting fires...
