ASSOCIATION OF PRODUCING ARTISTS, Hollywood, Calif. The APA returns to the Huntington Hartford Theater for a ten-week season ending Sept. 16. The program includes Ibsen's The Wild Duck, the Pirandello puzzler, Right You Are If You Think You Are, George Kelly's The Show-Off, and the American premiere of Pantagleize, by De Ghelderode...
...palace went into the royal soup. The Duke and Duchess of Kent, and Governor John A. Burns of Hawaii representing President Johnson, were among 3,000 guests who knelt on mats in the malae (palace park), ate (with fingers) such South Sea exotica as lupuhi -chicken and duck broiled in coconut sauce-and joined Tongans in consuming vats of a mildly narcotic, tongue-numbing drink made from pepper roots...

U.S. history, for instance, is told in terms of Sioux war bonnets, branding irons, and presidential campaign posters picked from the collection of John DeWitt, chairman of the Travelers Insurance Companies. Art ranges from antique duck decoys to banners of pop art; rock 'n' roll gets the silent treatment with a collection of famous guitars, including the favorite: Presley's own. Male individuality is illustrated with a collection of 300 hats; the universality of childhood with a jungle-gymful of Raggedy Ann dolls...
