Problems of the teaching profession at Annamalai include working effectively within the externally determined syllabi and examinations. Some professors feel their creativity is hampered. But this national system does lend stability to the educational process in a time of great change. The promotional process is also accause for some concern. Advancement from lecturer to reader to professor is based entirely on seniority.

...Pioneered in Europe by the late French architect Auguste Ferret, it makes possible spans and spires undreamed of by medieval minds.

These new, iridescent walls of glass lend a ripple of color to otherwise oatmeal-grey concrete. The glassmakers must work hand in hand with the architect. Says France's best-known glass designer, Gabriel Loire, 60: "We do not come in at the last moment just to fill in holes...

She is delightful to listen to when she explains with gestures the stunning miscarriage of justice by which she lost a beauty contest. And her party dance...

Mortgage costs are falling too. New home mortgages in November carried an average interest of 5.75% v. 5.82% a year earlier. While banks can and will switch part of the new flood of savings into other kinds of loans-some of them riskier than usual-S. & L.s are far more locked into the mortgage field. Says Eugene M. Mortlock. president of Manhattan's First Federal...
