Perhaps Ardery went astray by choosing to read what the Niemans suggested they wanted to do before they arrived here, instead of asking them what they are doing now. If he had read the description of my intentions in the Nieman announcement, he would have decided that I was now taking courses in Southern history and politics. In point of fact, I have taken none in either. Most of us in the program discovered new horizons while shopping around for courses during the first few weeks of the Fall term.

On a swimming expedition, Shirley and the Rolls are left unguarded just long enough to entertain Alain Delon, utterly persuasive as a gigolo-photographer who cannot resist going astray for a pretty face, particularly...
