Papal Advance Man. An unofficial advisory panel of bankers and financiers counsels the Vatican. Among them is Guido Carli, president of the Bank of Italy. By his own admission, Marcinkus needs all the help he can get. A genial and highly popular prelate who studied at Rome's Gregorian University for priests, he is a first-class organizer, but readily confesses: "I have no banking experience." Since 1959, he has been a member of the Vatican Curia-the central administration of the church. He was principal planner and advance man on Pope Paul's foreign trips...
...come almost too late to be of use-if only because the Gold Pool itself is likely to be revamped as one result of last week's emergency. The Europeans arriving in Washington-Britain's O'Brien, Hubert Ansiaux of Belgium, Karl Blessing of Germany, Guido Carli of Italy, Jelle Zijlstra of The Netherlands, and Edwin Stopper of Switzerland-favored the view that the time has come to try the "two-tier" system of gold prices that many an economist has been urging.

In arranging the show, he tried "to pounce on any contrasts or similarities." Baroque Italian cupids by Guido Reni hang beside Isamu Noguchi's stainless-steel Man in Space. A gemlike 15th century English marble Pietà contributed by Seward Eric (P.A. '10), is set off by a terra-cotta Nigerian 20th century oba's (a ruler's) head, contributed by Whitney P. Foster...
...heir apparent, had resigned. Reason: a squabble between Christian Democrats and Socialists over who would be officially tapped to run Italy's biggest financial institution once Longo stepped out. The Christian Democrats favored Lolli, who has the backing of such important moneymen as Bank of Italy Governor Dr. Guido Carli and Treasury Minister Emilio Colombo. The Socialists, demanding jobs and economic power as the price for their 1963 split with the Communists and alliance with the Christian Democrats, urged the appointment of Paolo Pagliazzi, 58, a former professor who is currently the bank's real estate loan expert...
