...trunk of his car in suburban Arlington Heights, Ill. He had been brutally beaten, and his throat was cut. On Feb. 13 English finished a roast pig dinner at Horwath's restaurant in Elmwood Park, Ill., trading small talk for more than two hours with, among others, two Cook County judges and two village trustees. He patted his stomach, hitched up his belt, waved goodbye and walked toward his white Cadillac De Ville coupe.

...wear a mask. One of the twelve rules he must obey is that he "shall not possess nor consume any beverage except as dispensed from the liquor wagon." All day he will ride through the country collecting chickens, rice and vegetables for a gumbo the womenfolk will cook back in town. The column will be halted frequently for beer and boiled eggs. A Cajun band on a wagon, relying heavily on fiddle, washboard, squeeze-box, guitar and triangle, will serenade him on the 15-mile ride.

The results are good, according to Steve Osder, director...

"He thinks of nuns as a servant class," says Rosemary Ruether, professor of theology at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary in Evanston, Ill.

The Pope got a taste of such criticisms on his visit to the U.S. in 1979. Sister Theresa Kane, then president of the Sisters of Mercy of the Union, declared in his presence that the church...

There were three other members of Creedence--Doug Clifford, Stu Cook and John's brother Tom--but it quickly became clear that it was John's band. This caused some resistance among the others. They were chafing against the autocracy of a young man whose Arcadian visions of a mythic America (Green River, Proud Mary) were as ample and unsentimental as his urban cameos (Down on the Corner), his musical allegories (Travelin' Band), his raunchy rockers (Sweet Hitch-Hiker) and his heartsick love songs (Wrote a Song for Everyone...
