...treasures averaged five hours. In Chicago, 2,000 lined up opening day to marvel at the glittering objects found in the tomb of the boy pharaoh who lived in the 14th century B.C. (TIME, May 2). Now it is New Orleans' turn, and though the exhibit has effectively been presented, some of that old Mardi Gras madness has rubbed off on the Egyptian god-king...
...everyone is Tutillated by the city's lighthearted approach. Especially not Jake DiMaggio. His acquaintance with Egyptian authorities (through his construction company's work there) helped land the exhibit for New Orleans. Now he is red-faced over the blue street and the sideshows.

The museum will soon...

This would-be saga abouty three losers who flee the slums of Berlin for the promise of America delivers some startling imagery all right, but the story's fascination with the daily trampling of a society's outcasts serves precious little creative purpose. Witnessing the humiliation and coldness meted out to whores and alcoholics does not do your head much good, and the gratuitous...
