Claudio, idealistic and introverted, is so lost in an irreconcilable vision of the noble savage, the savagery of ignoble civilization, that he periodically retreats further into the jungle to read philosophy in a native hammock. There are the diamond diggers of Aragarcas, their skin made as hard as aluminum by insect bites, who blow each bonanza on preposterous luxuries sold to them at incredible prices by Levantine traders: mink coats for jungle prostitutes, a Cadillac shipped in pieces and reassembled to run back and forth on 100 yards...

Diamond, New York State's commissioner of environmental conservation, last week warned that burning them causes air pollution and burying them whole wastes scarce landfill areas. As a better ecological idea, Diamond singled out the system used in Greenburgh, N.Y. The town is picking up the trees at curbside and running them through chipping machines, used the rest of the year to clean up after tree prunings on the town's property.

The Terrapin Club offered a gold Terrapin pin with an inlaid diamond, four season tickets to basketball and football games, and various parking privileges and ticket options to anyone who would make an annual donation of $1000 to the Maryland Educational Foundation for the purpose of athletic scholarships.

There is the Lefty Driesell...
