...must be dedicated to being the best-prepared teachers possible," says Sister Mary Emil of Detroit's Mary-grove College, who believes that "we are within ten to 15 years of establishing the sisterhoods as the best-trained teachers on the American scene." Since one-tenth of the nation's children attend Catholic parochial schools, Sister Formation represents a national asset that will pay off not just in better-educated sister-teachers but also in better-educated Americans...
...extended duty. Last week Miller, at 44, was named president of the nation's largest underwriting house, which last year placed $2 billion worth of securities. He will be in charge of underwriting, serve as the youngest of the firm's three chief executives (others: Chairman Emil Pattberg Jr., 54, and Executive Committee Chairman Charles Glavin, 53).

They mainly saw it, says Emil, "as a means to add new interpretations and new dimensions to already existing works, and as a real possibility for creating entirely new works...
Newman and his wife have said that they had left the fake West for some real acting in the legitimate theater. And both are always fun to watch and at times as real as one could wish. But because of Costigan's myopia, no clear Mavis or Emil (or Edward for that matter) ever comes through; the only consistent performance is from Barney, the sheep-dog (played, the program reports, by Patrick, the sheep-dog). And he can't save the show. Baby Want A Kiss some how manages to be as inane as its title...
