...Roman Catholic priests of Spain had better climb off their motor scooters, put out their cigarettes, and stay away from soccer games and bullfights. So decreed Spain's primate, Enrico Cardinal Pla y Deniel, 80, in the bulletin of the Archbishopric of Toledo. "In the middle of the giddy life of the present time," wrote the cardinal, priests should preserve the "sacerdotal sanities." This means, in Spain at least, that they should always wear their long, skirted cassocks and "in cities of importance" must add the mantle (sotana) or at least the short cape (esclavina...
Apparent front-runner in the race for the Qum oil concession is Italy's state-owned ENI oil and gas monopoly, headed by ambitious Enrico Mattei, who wants to force Italy's way into the international consortium of British, Dutch, French and 14 U.S. oil companies that holds the concession on Iran's older oilfield along the Persian Gulf. A fortnight ago ENI had reportedly closed a deal to exploit Qum itself. Last week it was disclosed that ENI had merely initialed a contract, subject to ratification by the Iranian Parliament, to explore three other areas. Under...
...heart of Chicago's Fort Dearborn project, a 150-acre slum-clearance development on the main northern approach to the Loop, city planners decided to build a memorial to Atomic Physicist Enrico Fermi, who achieved the first controlled nuclear chain reaction, on a squash court under the stands of the University of Chicago's Stagg Field. When an international architectural competition was launched, 355 entrants from 25 countries submitted their designs. Last week the jury awarded first prize and $5,000 to Architect Reginald Caywood Knight, 35, of M.I.T.'s department of architecture...
...Albanian banks, have long since outlived their functions and represent a net loss to the Italian taxpayers.

...reentry, i.e., how to keep a space vehicle (or missile) from burning up due to friction when it hits the relatively dense atmosphere of the earth at 20,000 m.p.h. To study this friction in the laboratory, Dr. Gabriel M. Giannini, a close friend of the late Atomic Physicist Enrico Fermi, is building a device called a "plasma jet." A stream of inert gas such as argon is passed through a high intensity electric discharge. The resulting heat forces a jet of highly ionized gas out a small hole at enormous speed and temperature (even a small jet will quickly...
