...committed to fighting the ways that the university aids American Imperialism, and that includes attacking the Center, I am opposed to the tactics of the action taken by RYM. First of all, it is clear that the Center cannot be stopped or even seriously harrassed by such isolated terrorist tacitics. Any successful fight is going to have to involve huge numbers of students. The RYM members made no attempt to explain either the nature of the Center or the nature of their opposition to it, to the campus or the community...
...Suez the only scene of action. The Israelis carried out raids deep in Egypt and against terrorist camps along the borders of Jordan and Lebanon. Arab guerrillas lofted Soviet-made Katyusha rockets into Israeli kibbutzim, or crept across the borders to plant mines and blow up pipelines. The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine proved particularly nettlesome. Three weeks ago, the P.F.L.P. hijacked a TWA jetliner with 113 aboard and forced it down in Damascus; two Jewish passengers are still being held by the Syrians. Last week several of the Front's teen-aged "cub commandos" tossed hand grenades...

In a Haifa market, a 17-year-old youth tugged at an odd-looking object embedded in a watermelon and triggered an explosion; police found several more booby-trapped melons near by. In all, terrorist action killed one and wounded 13. Against this background of violence, Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir called for adherence to the cease-fire resolution, adding grimly that "I must point out to Egypt, Jordan and Syria that we do not speak out of weakness...
...Among them: an autonomous black studies department, full professor rank for the department head (who had been on the faculty less than one year), the firing of a white administrator and admission of all black students who applied for the next year. The militants enforced the strike with violent terrorist tactics, physical intimidation of non-strikers, invasion of classes, destruction of property...
