Included in Cambridge voters are more than 130 Leverett Towers residents who were recently included in the fourth district after a post-primary decision by the Cambridge Election Commission redrew the boundary lines to include that dormitory and a house on Ames St. in the fourth district...
Trudeau also erased the Y on B.D.'s helmet, clothed all the naked girls, deleted expletives, and completely redrew nearly an entire year's worth of strips to lend them a universal appeal. He enrolled in the Yale graduate School of Art, studying by day and sweating over the drawing board at night. "I nearly killed myself doing both," he recalls. Along the way, Michael J. Doonesbury started tutoring in the ghetto, B.D. went to Viet Nam and met Phred the Terrorist, and Mark Slackmeyer used his experience as a campus radical to organize a truckers' strike...
...Four ministers did manage some remarkably durable diplomatic achievements. During months of intricate maneuvering, in an atmosphere marred by constant intrigue and espionage, they redrew the map of Europe, rewarding the states that defeated Napoleon with new territories and restoring ruling families, like the Bourbons, to thrones from which they had been ousted by the French Revolution and Bonaparte's conquests.

Last week the Supreme Court confirmed that choice...
Whites were outraged and responded by voting out four of the liberals. The new board abandoned the integration plan and redrew district lines so that all eight would be controlled by whites. That sent the N.A.A.C.P. to court, and in a series of decisions beginning in September 1971, Federal Judge Stephen Roth further angered white parents by ordering the city's schools to integrate with those of 52 suburbs. Though his rulings are still under appeal, they would require that about 310,000 children be bused between city and suburban schools-about 40% of the total in the metropolitan...
