...even Communists-make a common claim on the Catholic Pope: they feel that they have a right to an audience with him. And Popes have always responded, each in his own way. The languid Leo X of the Renaissance grandly received his subjects on horseback while at the hunt, and Pius IX had his own railway car to make whistlestop visits through the papal states. The general audiences of the ascetic Pius XII were like an encounter with a saint. John XXIII's were folksy-until sickness and duty made him give them up. The mood of Pope Paul...
...Scandinavian Gold Cup. For seven days, on the wind-lashed waters of Long Island Sound, they battled for the world's 5.5-meter sailing championship. And when the contest ended last week, they sadly packed their sail bags and left the championship to C. Raymond Hunt, 55, a bespectacled grandfather from Tilton, N.H., who had never before sailed a 5.5-meter in international competition...
However professionally exciting it may be to hunt down water symbols in Poe, or Proust, or Pope, the humanist cannot forget that his primary responsibility is to the national culture, not to the Modern Language Association, and that oncoming generations, through they should be generously encouraged to believe that beauty is its own excuse for being, must also be strictly taught the changeless meaning of the three most powerful words in any dialect--justice, virtue, and love; concepts that arise out of history in spite of the fact that, or because, history too frequently denies them.

Game managers have proved that the birds' talent for dodging, plus enthusiastic mating habits, keep the dove population constant, and there is no reason to deprive 100,000 hungry hunters of their delicate game. Said one last week: "I don't care if they sing...
...Barn. Some were for large land projects such as the design of 5,000 acres of residential and commercial development at California's Bishop Ranch; others involved simply the architectural design for individual buildings. (One of his best is the new headquarters of the Hunt Foods Co. at nearby Fullerton.) Currently under construction on Wilshire Boulevard is the Pereira-designed Los Angeles County Art Museum, biggest to be built in the U.S. since Washington's National Gallery in 1941. This $8,000,000 structure, financed through the efforts of Department Store Magnate Edward W. Carter, will feature three soaring pavilions...
