	JAMES ROUSE: THE GREAT OAK FALLS
		BALTIMORE -- For a half century, James W. Rouse was like a great, towering oak, unrivaled in the forest in his defense of American cities, championing their least powerful people, mounting projects for urban rejuvenation -- even while much of urban America ran helter-skelter for the suburban edge.
		Some argue that Rouse's later activities -- the festival marketplaces, the Enterprise Foundation (cofounded with his wife Patty) -- were somehow a guilt trip, an effort to atone for the big push his projects had given the suburbs.
		When Rouse created his first malls, the cities were still packed with people and activity; his goal was civilized suburban life, not dead city centers.
