Frank McCarthy came as an actor to make his debut in Slave, and has starred in Birdbath and Death of Bessie Smith since then. Gus Johnson, who was well received at the Atma in Slave and Dutchman, is one of the few actors to leave the theatre, going to the Seattle (Wash.) Repertory Company. William Utay, Rick Bailey, and Lelani Johnson (Bailey's wife) came up from Dallas, Texas and SMU to put together Bill Hanhoff's Owl and the Pussycat on ten days' notice. The production closed out the last two weeks of the Atma in Castle Square...
DIVERTIMENTI, K. 136, K. 137, K. 138; SERENATA NOTTURNA, K. 239 (Argo). One of the world's best new chamber orchestras is the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, which took its name from the old London church where it made its debut a decade ago.

Meanwhile, his parents had stopped sending their prodigy to school after the first grade, partly because they felt they could do a better job tutoring him themselves. They did. At 13, Paul won a New York City high school equivalency diploma...
President Nixon's science adviser, Lee A. DuBridge, apparently favors just the opposite emphasis. At his press debut late last month, he noted that "many responsible engineers and scientists are collaborating effectively and earnestly and patriotically with the government in connection with defense problems," but he also urged scientists to work much more closely with the Defense Department in the future...
British-born Graham Kerr, commercial TV's answer to Julia Child, made his U.S. debut in seven cities only last month. In Los Angeles and San Francisco, his syndicated half-hour weekday show, The Galloping Gourmet, is already so hot that it will soon go into prime time once a week. Two other markets will join next week. Before the year is out, Kerr, 35, may well become as ubiquitous on TV sets as the White Tornado...
