...future; last week Russia acknowledged that most of the Trans-Siberian Railway had been off limits to foreigners since June 1. The ban was presumably imposed to prevent non-Russians from viewing Soviet troop movements and military hardware along the border. On the following pages are rare, recent color photographs taken in the troubled border areas. They are the work of an enterprising Italian freelance photographer who, just prior to the ban, completed a trip through Siberia arranged by Intourist, the official Soviet tourist agency...
...baccalaureates, many of them to children of families only one or two generations in the U.S. Quietly, pridefully, parents and relatives took their places on folding chairs on the broad lawn, while a Berlioz march thundered from loudspeakers. Some women wore mink stoles; others were in frantically color-splashed pants suits. Folded Yiddish newspapers protruded from the pockets of some of the men.

This year, older and a little wiser, Claudine brought suit against the company. Ruling that...
...decks, imperial Rome, Emerson's Boston, Wren's London. There are, as always, several Lowells: Lowell the improper Bostonian, the politically engaged, the scholar, traveler and eclectic New England importer of foreign cultures. Lowell the poet has not only the chameleon's ability to change the color of his verse to fit the subject but that wizard lizard's faculty of independently focusing each eye. The left Lowell eye may be modishly on the topical-Che Guevara, police, R.F.K., student riots, Dr. Spock. But the right eye glints backwards to Agamemnon, Sir Thomas More, Napoleon, King...
