There were four mass rallies: an opening ceremony and parade in the Weiner Sports Stadium; an anti-colonialism meeting which was largely unsuccessful because of a poor choice of location and impending rain; an expertly handled parade on Vienna's Ring ending in a "solidarity" rally in a public park, featuring singer Paul Robeson; and the closing ceremony by the Vienna Rathaus, which was basically an international talent show...
Like two boxers eying each other across the ring, France's Charles de Gaulle and Algerian rebel "Premier" Ferhat Abbas last week sat waiting for the next diplomatic round. Silent hauteur was Paris' first response to the counterproposals with which Abbas and his "Cabinet" had met De Gaulle's offer of Algerian self-determination (TIME, Sept. 28).

Despite all predictions it was, in the parlance of the ring, the President's round on points. And it was a truly amazing performance he put on. Relegated by the experts to the role of a lame duck at the beginning of the year, he was acclaimed for his leadership at the end.

...interested in producing well-rounded men, but men with sharp, abrasive edges-rebels with clear minds and uncowed consciences, critics of society, not adjusters to it." The words would have a stirring ring coming from any educator, but they take on added meaning coming from the dean of faculty of a new public college spun off by big (20,000 students) Michigan State University, long known as an "ag and tech" institution. Last week, at the opening of the new college at Oakland, 60 miles east of M.S.U.'s main East Lansing campus, crewcut Dean Robert Hoopes, 39, onetime...
