...this year's Oscar as the best foreign film. Within the past three weeks, two other Czech films have opened in Manhattan, and an astonishing 55 more have been acquired for U.S. distribution in the near future. Already festooned with garlands of laurels from European competitions, Milos Forman's The Loves of a Blonde has been chosen to open the annual New York Film Festival at Lincoln Center this fall...
Stealing Second Base. Continental's celerity is largely the work of its longtime (since 1938) President Robert Forman Six, a onetime merchant seaman who built the airline up from a puddle jumper. Six, 58, is a theatrical sort whose three marriages-to a California socialite, Actresses Ethel Merman and Audrey Meadows, his present wife-created a standard gag at Continental: "Bob is batting .500.

At the other end stands the team of Jan Kadar and Elmar Klos, who have created in The Shop on Main Street a film of enormous impact and meaning...
Last week, at a secret meeting outside Nashville, Tenn., S.N.C.C. charted an even more lonely and combative course. Ousted were Chairman John Lewis, 25, and Executive Secretary James Forman, 37, both of whom welcomed white members and ventured some cooperation with less militant civil rights organizations. Elected in their place were two leaders who appear eager to drop whites from their organization: Stokely Carmichael, 24, as chairman, and Mrs. Ruby Smith Robinson, 25, executive secretary...
