...husband, a railroad brakeman (played by Painter Larry Rivers), comes home. He has invited a High Church bishop for tea. The bishop is like 20 years old, and he brings his mother. Not all the Beats are pleased. Ginsberg: "I'll go in the bathroom and watch television." Corso wonders if the bishop knows about "beer bottles that come in magic candlesticks. Is alligators holy, Bishop? Is everything holy? Are we all in heaven now and don't know about it? Jamambi, jamambi, jamambi, jamac." After that, the plot thins, but it is the flavor that matters...
Silent Night, Lonely Night (by Robert Anderson) tells of two people in a New England inn on Christmas Eve.

"I think it's a hard life with all that traveling and living in hotels," says Big Luke, as serious as a sophomore can be. "I want to settle down...
...force of Japanese competition. But Chen Che Lee, a wealthy young Shanghai cotton manufacturer, fooled the experts. In 1946, with $1,500,000 borrowed from friends, Lee established South China Textile, Ltd., the first major textile mill in Hong Kong. Over the past decade, problems have been over come, and from Lee's daring example has grown an industry that this year will ex port $110 million worth of garments. So successful is Hong Kong as a garment center that U.S. manufacturers and labor unions now want restrictions on cotton exports to the U.S. Last week Industry Leader...
