Belaunde has even bigger plans for the interior. At best, Peru's stony Andes can support only marginal farming. Across the peaks lies the great, green montana, Peru's eastern lowland that stretches out to the Amazon and Brazil. The montana represents 62% of Peru's land area, is rich in rubber, jute, fruits, coffee, timber and grass for ranching. Yet it is home to barely 14% of Peru's people. The problem is accessibility. There are few roads and no railroads across the mountains; transportation is by air, or up the rivers...
Life is pop ballet, a modern parable that mocks contemporary values. To the stabbing atonal music of Charles Ives, the dancers move through four stages of life against a background of giant flats of pop art-IBM cards, an ice-cream cone, green stamps, comic-strip characters. By contrast, Lucifer is classical ballet, eschewing pantomime and narrative for a more abstract visualization of Hindemith's austere Concert Music for Strings and Brass.

U.S. technicians insist that such problems have long since been overcome, that the rival plans are too costly and that the French system has many other bugs...
Asked why she has played hooky from the convent to go singing through mountain meadows, the bob-haired young novice Maria (Julie Andrews) explains: "The sky was so blue, and the day was so green and fragrant, I just had to be a part of it!" In response, a chorus of nuns wreathed in beatific smiles lift their voices to chant...
