...Children have won over two important figures in the broader Jesus movement: David Hoyt, of Atlanta's street ministries, and Linda Meissner, of Seattle's Jesus People Army. Both apparently decided that their own methods were not producing enough lasting converts; Hoyt pointedly blamed his "watered-down Gospel." When he entered the Children of God, he took many of the Atlanta Jesus People with him. Linda Meissner, however, took far fewer of her Jesus People Army along-and indeed the feud between the mainstream Army (including Linda's husband John Salvesen) and her splinter group has scandalized...
When neorealism was gospel, Vittorio De Sica was one of the evangelical influences in world cinema. Times changed, tastes changed, and De Sica tried to adapt himself to the commercial film. The results were at best fluff (Marriage-Italian Style), more frequently flubs (Woman Times Seven, The Condemned of Altond). Now, after more than a decade of indifferent and impersonal work, De Sica has returned to form. If The Garden of the Finzi-Continis does not fully rival The Bicycle Thief and Umberto D., it is good enough to stand comparison with them...
Against the Gospel. In terms of fundamental economic change, 1971 was easily the most exciting and eventful year since the early 1930s. Domestically, a Republican President who had preached the glories of free enterprise clamped on first a rigid wage-price freeze, then comprehensive controls of the kind usually associated with all-out war.

...years the term "hillbilly music" has been used as a rubric covering a fantastic variety of sub-forms: old-time, familiar tunes, Dixie, mountain, sacred, gospel, country, cowboy, western, country-western, hill and range, western swing, Nashville, rockabilly, bluegrass. And every time a Northerner hears a hint of "twang" likely as not he'll think "hillbilly" and, blam, close another door. The problem with generalities is that they tend to become fixed, develop into prejudices, and communication comes to a roaring halt...
...campuses during their first year. It was also during that year that they recorded their first "long playing, short selling" album for Folkways. The following year, the group was invited to the Newport Folk Festival, where they were received enthusiastically. During the early sixties, they continued touring spreading the gospel of old-time music, and gaining a considerable underground reputation. It was also during this time period that the various members of the group made pilgrimages South, collecting songs, pictures, stories, and "rediscovering" some of the great performers of the 1920's who had been presumed dead for years...
