...memorial concert of Brahms's Ein Deutsches Requiem with the Glee Club, Radcliffe Choral Society. University Chorus, and Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra, all groups that G. Wallace Woodworth had conducted, was splendid. The only student concert which compares with it was the University Chorus's performance last Easter of Bach's St. John Passion.

The brooding huge monoliths of Easter Island, 2,000 miles off the coast of Chile in the Pacific, have held an abiding fascination for generations of archaeologists. Maziere has new theories about the men who produced them and why, though the impact of his research is somewhat blunted by the fact that boulder-size chunks were lifted from previous work by an obscure Capuchin priest named Father Sebastian Englert...
