AMERICAN SHAKESPEARE FESTIVAL, Stratford, Conn. Two comedies, As You Like It and Love's Labour's Lost, provide the light moments, while Richard II deals with weightier affairs of men and state. A dash of Shaw is offered in Androcles and the Lion. Through Sept...
...five children and five establishments in Lexington, Ky., Saratoga, Manhattan, Manitoba, Canada, and 100,000 acres of the Adirondacks. So Marylou and her two secretaries (one in New York and one in Kentucky) spend a lot of time in a welter of lists, files and details. She likes to dash off notes to the help about buying ham at less than $5 a pound: As she says: "Money does not grow on trees." And then there are decisions-decisions like what movies to choose for the Adirondacks this summer and whom to invite for the fishing and whom...
...seldom had occasion to look north to Canada for political excitement. Yet last week Americans could envy Canadians the exuberant dash of their new Prime Minister, Pierre Elliot Trudeau, who, along with intellect and political skill, exhibits a swinger's panache, a lively style, an imaginative approach to his nation's problems.

Last week Hary's Deutsche mark was not only broken but absolutely devalued at the A.A.U. championship in Sacramento, Calif. In eight 100-meter races-four heats, two semifinals, the final, and a runoff for one berth in this week's Olympic trials-no fewer than ten competitors equaled Hary's time, and three were officially...
There were some brilliant individual performances throughout the season. Captain-elect Dick Benka set a shot put record of 58' 11 1/2"; captain Jeff Huvelle broke a 50-year-old record in the 440-yard dash; Steve Schoonover became the first Ivy League polevaulter to go 16 feet; Roy Shaw and Jim Baker made several valiant but futile runs at the four minute mile; Frank Haggerty established himself as one of the nation's best hurdlers before a freak accident cut short his senior season. More than anything else Harvard lacked experience, but there may be help from the freshmen...
