...described last fortnight by Jesuit Theologian Gustave A. Weigel (TIME, June 2). From the time it was founded 66 years ago until the end of World War II, St. Bernard's Benedictines and their Catholic students maintained an aloof hostility to the Baptists and Lutherans of nearby Cullman, Ala.

Under the Wire. Good luck marked the U.S. Pavilion from the start. The World's Fair U.S. Commissioner-General Howard S. Cullman credits Stone's early planning, even before a final budget figure was available, with giving the U.S. the fast start that "was the difference between make or break." Belgium's top contractor, Emile Blaton. made the project his particular baby. As a result, the U.S. Pavilion, one of the last to get started in Brussels, is among the first to be completed.
