AMONG the greatest collectors of art were Rome's Renaissance Popes, and under their patronage, Raphael and Michelangelo produced some of their greatest works. For a sampling in color of the Vatican Treasures, see ART, Matter and Spirit at the Vatican...
Caravans & Color TV. Boatmen are happily convinced that they are just beginning to tap the potential market. Banks like to lend money for new boats (the repossession rate is practically nil) and wives who once turned querulous at their husbands' seasonal desertion plead for bigger, headier boats. Boat clubs blossom in landlocked regions. In Arizona, where the boating public numbered only about 3,000 five years ago, there are now more than 30,000-and many of them fan out from Phoenix as far as 280 miles to find water.

They fish under the dawn-pink sky out of San Diego, and in the cool basins of the Colorado mountains. And they...
...cast aspersions upon Gerard Phillipe's portrayal of Julien. Its lugubrious, studied quality is well in line with the movie's tone. The technicolor is, perhaps, the finest feature of the film, making quite clear that the movie is steeped in symbolism. Red and Black come off nicely in color, but, unfortunately, the director seems to think that such visual imagery can make up for more sophisticated dramatic devices...
