...most significant rise of all was for beef. Compared with a year ago, prices in April were up 8% for hamburger, 9% for sirloin and 10% for round steak. Some alarmed butchers predict that sirloin may hit $2 a Ib. this summer...
...this year. There would be losses to Dartmouth and Princeton, and perhaps to Cornell too. The Ivy League title would be fought over by Princeton and Yale, and Harvard would only play the role of the spoiler--the spoiling coming at the Yale game simply because no one can predict who will win the Yale game no matter how good either team is. That was the scenario that everyone believed in--until Harvard beat Princeton and Dartmouth and Cornell and all the rest. And now it is time for the Yale game with both Harvard and Yale undefeated...
...cent a year compounded. This annual rate of increase is made up mainly of value appreciation but it also includes gifts for capital and undistributed "income." Put in more general terms, the investments have increased about two and one-third times every ten years, which leads us to predict that by 1977 they will be worth about $2.4 billion. Isn't this enough -- perhaps even more than enough earning power for the long run? To answer this, we will calculate the long term effects on the investments of increased immediate expenditures and proportionately less saving...
...acceptable political behavior to include, on a de facto basis, limited interruptions of normal university routines. Such interruptions would have to be brief and stop well short of violence and the threat of violence, both of which would presumably remain subject to severe sanctions. It is obviously impossible to predict that such an accommodation would work, or even that there would be a serious effort to find one and make it work. All that it is possible to assert with some confidence is that without tacit concessions and explorations by both sides, Harvard and other universities will indeed cease...
Notch by Notch. Javits' criticism may be overly severe, as well as premature. Nixon's dilemma is that he must do his best to maintain a credible bargaining position in Paris while assuaging the doves at home. No one can predict whether or when a settlement will be achieved, but the President meanwhile has been edging toward a reduction of U.S. forces in Viet Nam. The first pullback might take place this summer, even if there is no reciprocity on the other side. Whatever else it might accomplish, a reduction in the American troop level-perhaps including some...
