Most notable of the earlier successes was the 1956 Montgomery bus boycott, which also marked the emergence of strong magnetic leadership--an essential factor in the success of any sustained social movement. In the Montgomery conflict, Martin Luther King came to embody the ethic, the youth, the drive of the Negroes' protest. Although King was not on the scent in the early...
...first one cannot help wondering whether we haven't been through this trial before. It becomes clear, however, that these people deserve a second ordeal, because they are guilty of two crimes. And it is fitting that the present perjury investigation follows the previous trial, because perjury is only the secondary crime.

The Harvard squad, on the other hand, is considerably improved over last year's team. The varsity's top three--captain Jed Fitzgerald, Mark Mullin, and Ed Hamlin--are all potentially outstanding runners, although only Mullin ran in top form against Cornell last Saturday...
