...with nothing to hide, Boss Beck's recent behavior had been highly peculiar. Within the past three weeks he had: 1) declined, pleading illness, to appear before a Senate subcommittee investigating misuse of union funds; 2) turned up, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, at the Miami Beach midwinter meeting of the A.F.L.-C.I.O. executive council.

Just published are two more notable studies by Roman Catholics: Shane Leslie's Ghost Book (Sheed & Ward; $3) and Occult Phenomena, by Father Alois Wiesinger, an Austrian Trappist (Newman Press...
...operas draw (while three Ring performances are extraordinary, a popular repertory opera can be put on from eight to a dozen times each season, thereby making investments in rehearsal time and sets worthwhile). Moreover, the Ring requires the importation of singers most of whom sing only Wagner and hence appear a mere dozen or so times in a 160-performance season...
