Pedlosky plans to appeal the case to the Supreme Court, and a long, perhaps futile, judicial struggle now seems inevitable. While the suit is being adjudicated--and in case it fails--Bowles, Pedlosky, and their supporters should consider the most effective remaining alternative: legislating the repeal of the oath by mobilizing sentiment on campuses throughout Massachusetts. If they sincerely believe that the loyalty pledge represents a threat to academic freedom, they should extend the campaign through petition from Harvard and M.I.T. to other colleges across the Commonwealth...

Pete McGavin, executive secretary of the federation's maritime-trades department, spoke for many of his colleagues when he observed: "If President Johnson had put as much emphasis on 14(b) as he did on his wife's beautification program, the measure would have gone through...
...Humphrey when the tally was completed, "there are 51 yeas and 48 nays. Two-thirds of the Senators present and voting not having voted in the affirmative, the cloture motion is rejected." Two days later Mansfield tried again; this time the vote was 50 to 49 for cloture. Thus repeal of 14(b) was dead for this session.
