...outstanding Protestant theologians, author of Peter, an exegetical study of the origins of the Papacy (TIME, Dec. 7, 1953), and of a noted eschatological work, Christ and Time. His listeners found Theologian Cullmann's English fluent, his manner affable, and his occasional comments on the U.S. apt...
...seems that Actress Baxter, a blues belter who is apt to wear as many as several sequins at once, has gone from bed to worse: murder. The hero tries to save her soul, but he keeps hankering after her body. At one point, they stash away in an attic. As she rubs against him, he hesitates, looking less like St. Anthony before the Devil than an aging shortstop in confrontation with an alluring calorie, and is lost when the sound track weighs in with the kind of unhealthy music that passes censorship but might better be evaluated by a Wassermann...
...doorways present themselves to permit entrance into this uninterrupted mass of red brick. This would suggest that we are dealing with a temple constructed for the soul, not for the body.

On deck once again is the cutthroat pirate crew, the boy in the apple barrel (Kit Taylor this time), the mutiny, the mad castaway, the attack on the fort-even the same rented parrot, or its Aunt Polly. Luckily, there is also the same actor to play Long John Silver: Robert Newton...
