True Amalgam. An evening at City Opera does not alway glitter with great singing stars, although in Bass Norman Treigland and Soprano Sills the company possesses two of the finest voices in the world. But Rudel's shows are rarely dull. Because he believes that "open should be a true amalgam of the visual and musical," he was steering City Opera toward total theater long before the term became fashionable. He hired such experienced directors as Frank Corsaro and Tito Capobianco, and gave then free dramatic rein. In those hands even old familiars like Gounod's Faust became...
...friend, longtime Svengali, and now the husband of Melina Mercouri (they were married last May), Director Jules Dassin periodically attempts to trap some of her wild Greek energy on film. His tempestuous Trilby, in her sixth Dassin movie, proves just one thing: the family that plays together does not alway make a Never on Sunday...
...Giants "any time, any place." And up in Buffalo, where 39,621 frantic fans somehow squeezed into the 38,167-seat War Memorial Stadium to watch the home-town Bills wallop the Jets 34-24, the battle cry was: "Bring on the Baltimore Colts!"

In the dining hall that serves Sarah Lawrence's 400 students, conversations hew to the intellectual rather than the social. This year's freshman play, written by students, is a satire on Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for Godot," a striking contrast to the fraternity-sorority skits that are the rule on many of the nation's campuses...
...theory that Stanford had been weakened by too much scholastic inbreeding (i.e., some department heads and professors had simply floated to the top on the strength of longevity), Alway had gone scouting for new blood, and he quickly hired a dazzling array of new men for top jobs, e.g., Pediatrician Norman Kretchmer from Cornell, Nobel Prizewinning Geneticist Joshua Lederberg from the University of Wisconsin, Biochemist Arthur Kornberg (along with several members of Kornberg's department) from Washington University of St. Louis. So far, Alway has replaced three department chiefs, created a new department (genetics), added eleven new full professors...
