Some ministers occasionally substitute movies, plays or poetry readings for conventional sermons. St. Clement's Episcopal Church, on the fringe of Broadway in Manhattan, frequently presents dramatic readings and even short playlets in place of sermons by its vicar, Father Eugene A. Monick. One Sunday, parishioners acted out a scene from Harold Pinter's The Caretaker. At another service, they put on a sketch about parish life, improbably called The Dynamics of Inter-Cultural Encounter, or How I Split My Scene, Dropped My Frock, Blew My Cool and Found...
...nationalization of Britain's steel industry has long been an emotion charged shibboleth for British socialists. Clement Attlee's Labor government succeeded in taking over the industry in 1951 - only to be driven from office eight months later, partly because it had muddled the steel industry so badly. The Tories put most of steel back into private hands. When he took over as Prime Minister in 1964, Harold Wilson tried to renationalize steel with his thin majority, but retreated when he saw how perilous ly close the vote would be.

...news that the President would not campaign came as a stitch in time to some candidates, such as Tennessee's Governor Frank Clement, who faced a close senatorial race with Senate Minority Leader Everett Dirksen's son-in-law, Republican Howard Baker. But most were disappointed. Whatever the degree of Johnson's popularity, a presidential visit usually helps swell the vote -and Democrats, who outnumber Republicans among the nation's 116 million eligible voters by a 2-to-1 margin, figured they would be hurt by a small turnout...
