...galleries, young artists across the land are turning back to images-but with a difference. The classical tradition, reasserted in the Renaissance, has always been that people are beautiful, at least in art. The new imagemakers dispute that. Their figures are human, but horrible. The horror school has its center in Chicago, is staffed by an earnest, loose-knit and surprisingly well-adjusted handful of Art Institute graduates...
...John of Jerusalem in the Greek city of Rhodes, the policy-making Central Committee of the World Council of Churches gathered last week for its tenth annual meeting. On hand were 72 delegates from 24 countries, plus 36 staff members and 73 observers and guests. But the center of all attention were the delegates of seven Eastern Orthodox member churches and the two observers from Russian Orthodoxy-the first visitors Moscow had allowed to attend a Central Committee meeting. Behind the scenes, a major game of diplomatic move and countermove is going on over whether the Orthodox churches will continue...
Woolworth's new store, set in modernistic decor (wall murals, blue-green mosaic tile) in the $28-million Ala Moana shopping center outside Honolulu (TIME, Aug. 10), is a far cry from the red-fronted, musty-smelling Main Street fixture known in hundreds of U.S. towns for its notions and knicknacks.

Both East and West felt the urgency of the widening gap and tried to bridge it with words; white-haired Kirchentag President...
...Hudson, a 15-room summer home on Fishers Island-a millionaire's retreat 135 miles from New York), cars (a Bentley, a Cadillac, four others). He loves speed, often commutes in his fast 65-ft. aluminum P-T boat to his office in the RCA Building at Rockefeller Center (of which he is chairman). He enjoys muscle-straining outdoor exercise, chops wood regularly. And he does not worry about his investments. Last week's plunge of space-age stocks left him unconcerned. Says he: "It looks like a long overdue technical correction. The current basic trend...
