More photos for that story - not sure if all of them were in the magazine (it should be easy on the Life website to find and link to all of them as well as find all the photos by any photographer as well as a bio - they should have gone with flickr rather than google)

This story mentions this cover at Potbelly's:
"Framed on the wall at Potbelly Sandwich Works is a Life Magazine cover depicting a college-aged couple holding hands in a loveseat, looking endearingly into each other's eyes with an alluring caption that reads, "Co-Ed Dorms: an intimate revolution on campus." The faded cover ran November 20, 1970, when college students were protesting an unpopular war and Simon and Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water" was the top song on the airwaves. Now, nearly 40 years later, when college students are again protesting an unpopular war (though with less vigor) and Akon's "Don't Matter" dominates radio play, another intimate revolution may be hitting the campus.

Finally got one! Been tryin' for a while on ebay, finally got this great condition issue. The next picture is the reason.
Over a thousand Chicagoans, from all walks of life and all parts of the city, came together at Millennium Park to perform "Crowd Out" by Davind Lang.
Although a bit chaotic in the beginning, once the leaders of each of the small groups that formed the whole got things in sync, it became a beautiful performance and a moving experience.
I came upon this event purely by accident and it took me a while to figure out what was going on.
Once surrounded by all these people, I was pretty much stuck, so you see some of the same faces over and over again.
I love little details.
I'm particularly intrigued by the birthday cake (detail of the cake). Is that supposed to be Charlie Brown? And if so, is that supposed to be Snoopy? And why is there no one else sitting at the table yet?
I wanted to know which issue of Life magazine appears beneath the coffee table at the far right. It's this one with Tricia Nixon, the President's daughter, on the cover.
On the back, someone wrote "3/6/71", "Reeves St Hse", "Matt M. 2nd B'Day", and "Roger M., one of Chuck's sisters." I tried looking up streets named Reeves in Oregon and there is a residential street here in Portland. No way to confirm or deny.
In March 2010, Matt M. will be 41 years old. I hope he's doing well, wherever he is.
One of the photographs I found (and purchased for 50 cents each) at SMUT (So Many Unique Treasures), a small store off of East Burnside in Portland. There were two old suitcases full of these photos and each contained hundreds.
Following the crash of a sister Lunar Landing Training Vehicle at Ellington Field in Houston, Texas, the Bell LLTV (NASA 952) was sent from Houston to Langley for tests in the 30 x 60 Full Scale Tunnel. The LLTV was returned to Houston for further training use a short time later. NASA 952 is now on exhibit at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas.

This is the interior of our trailer. People love all the little touches, like the Red Ryder poster and Coca~Cola decals. We named the trailer Daisy after the rifle and I added Valentine because we got her on Valentine's Day weekend. It all works somehow.
Back in the day these guys used to say to each other.."Smog?..Air Pollution?, that might be what you pantywaists call it, but all I see is, *cough* profits and, *cough* *cough* industry *wheeze* moving forward"!

The records came in a 24-page full-color Giant Storybook Album, which was the closest way for children to experience the film’s story and songs before the age of home video. The recordings included the story and music just as on the screen and with the original Disney voices, including Ed Wynn as the Mad Hatter, Sterling Holloway as the Cheshire Cat, Jerry Cologna as the March Hare, and Kathryn Beaumont as Alice.
Several other classic Disney properties were available as RCA Victor Children's Records, including “Snow White,” “Peter and the Wolf,” “Pinocchio,” “Dumbo,” “Johnny Appleseed,” “Pecos Bill,” “Bambi” and “Cinderella.”

The pages were very brittle and dry and were crumbling during handling.

ESCAPE FROM OBLIVION: A Moscow Correspondent's Memoir of the Cuban Missile Crisis
[Kindle Edition] Donald S. Connery (Author)
Publication Date: September 25, 2012
Book Description
ESCAPE FROM OBLIVION: A Moscow Correspondent’s Memoir of the Cuban Missile Crisis is unique among the many books on the singular event in human history that almost ended human history. As one of the most-traveled of all Cold War reporters, Donald S. Connery has produced an extraordinary, highly personal eyewitness account of the frightening thirteen days in late October 1962 that brought the world to the brink of a thermonuclear war.
He reveals that the citizens of the Soviet police state, who were kept in ignorance about the crisis, remained calm while many Americans were in panic. He tells how Russians, “Americans in disguise” as he saw them up close in 1961 and 1962, believed that they were drawing closer to the U.S.A. even as Khrushchev defied Kennedy by carrying out his secret shipments of missiles in Cuba. A recent visitor to the new Russia, the author shatters the myths about who started the crisis and who was the victor.
Donald S. Connery, an independent journalist and author of six books, is a World War II veteran and Harvard graduate who roamed the world for TIME and LIFE magazines during the heyday of their influence in the early Cold War years. He has since pioneered in exposing the magnitude of wrongful convictions in America’s criminal justice system.
