Expectedly, 37 new poets turn out to be about 30 too many, but among the best are some whose work deserves a longer hearing than the book provides-David Henderson, Audre Lorde, Conrad Kent Rivers, and the late Ray Durem. Jones, in particular, has a wit-and bitter whimsy that raises the simplest words to the level of poetry...
...ballet has two dazzling male stars in Jacques d'Amboise and Edward Villella, and the powerful dancing of Conrad Ludlow and Arthur Mitchell has added a virility enviable anywhere in the dance world. Ranking ballerinas such as Melissa Hayden, Patricia Wilde, and Maria Tallchief have a sameness of excellence that assures every program of a dazzling performance, but much of the company's real excitement comes from younger dancers-Patricia McBride, Suzanne Farrell, Suki Schorer, Gloria Govrin...

The Washington Star's James Berryman, who has harpooned Presidents for 31 years, considers Johnson "the answer to a cartoonist...
...always right" and "We have to grow or die." He particularly believes the latter, and has just embarked on an ambitious plan that aims at nothing less than converting Sljeme into, as he puts it, "a Yugoslav combination of Howard Johnson's, Safeway and Swift, with a little Conrad Hilton thrown in." Marton intends to spend $50 million by 1970 to build restaurants, motels, supermarkets and processing plants. Last week his program was well under way: four motels and restaurants along the Adriatic coast were nearly completed, and a big advertising campaign was under way in Europe to attract...
