...theology at St. John's University in New York before turning to journalism. Associate Editor Bruce Henderson, who wrote the cover story, is no stranger to religious dissent; he has been reporting on the current controversy since it started, and he wrote the Martin Luther cover for the Easter issue of 1967. Senior Editor John Elson, a seven-year veteran of the Religion section-both as writer and editor-has eleven Religion covers to his credit, including the two previous covers on Pope Paul and the now famous "Is God Dead?" cover that ran April...
...nation's economy declined, social unrest grew and his disputes with King Constantine became ever more acrimonious. When the military junta took over in April 1967, Papandreou was put under house arrest. His son Andreas, an even more active leftist, was thrown in jail and later exiled. Last Easter, when the house arrest was lifted, the old warrior responded with a typically unrepentant statement: "This year, the day of our Lord's resurrection, coincides with the anniversary of our people's crucifixion...
Possibly some of the people who hissed Herr Wessel know something about the accomplishments of the German SDS in recent months. For instance, of the two people killed in the Easter riots, at least one and presumably both were killed by stones.

(I am aware that last spring's Easter riots were precipitated by the brutal attack on Rudi Dutschke, but the death of two innocent people hardly aided Dutschke's cause.) Of course German policemen have been brutal...
...Muskie described it, Humphrey will hit "the big spots" during the campaign and he will "fill in the other territory." Said the former Governor, a Polish Catholic who nonetheless has the craggy, crinkly features of a down-Easter: "They say that because of my ethnic background I'm supposed to do well in the cities. However, it seems to me that because of my appearance I might expect to do very well in the rural areas...
MAINE Senator Edmund Sixtus Muskie looks and sounds like the prototype of the ancestral Down-Easter. Craggy-faced, big-boned and monumentally tall (he is 6 ft. 4 in.), he displays the New England legislator's characteristic attention to detail and distaste for florid rhetoric. It was hardly foreseeable before last week that the Democratic vice-presidential nominee?who is in fact the son of a Polish-born tailor?would be matched against a Republican opposite number from Maryland with a curiously similar background. Muskie and Spiro Agnew, Richard Nixon's running mate, are both sons of immigrants. Both grew...
