Pictures, which is in color and will have a length of 90 minutes, is actually two separate films packaged under one title. The title segment, filmed in February, is based on a Hawthorne story about a young couple that finds its destiny linked to its enigmatically grim wedding portrait...
Arcane Experiments. The candles swayed and changed color. Really? Sirhan insisted that it was no trick of imagination, reported Dr. Bernard L. Diamond. The noted psychoanalyst, who combines professorships in law, psychiatry and criminology at the University of California at Berkeley, was the star witness for Sirhan's defense. His testimony buttressed the diagnoses of five other experts that Sirhan was afflicted with paranoia and schizophrenia. Diamond reconnoitered the darkening recesses of the assassin's mind. One key to the killing, Diamond insisted, must be found in Sirhan's arcane experiments with the mirror. It was during...
...90th birthday at his home in West Redding, Conn. Edward Steichen, dean of the world's professional photographers, told a New York Times reporter what he has been doing.

Contemporary scientists have been far less convinced that Mars has water. They believe that the caps consist not of snow or ice but largely of frozen carbon dioxide, the principal constituent of the atmosphere of Mars. Some have suggested that the color changes are due to unknown chemical reactions, or to seasonal winds that alternately deposit sand from bright lowlands onto the dark highland surfaces and then blow it away. Their views have not been contradicted by spectrographic studies of the Martian atmosphere. Although some of these studies have detected traces of water vapor, the evidence has not been distinct...
Some of the marvels fashioned by the craftsmen of those eras could be seen last week at Sotheby's in London, where 142 objects from the collection of the late Melvin Gutman went on view (see color). Gutman was a strange man. Son of a Wall Street stockbroker, he made a fortune in the stock market, and at the age of 29 conceived a passion for antique jewelry. He never married, and for the last 34 years of his life he never strayed far from his Manhattan apartment. When he died last year...
