...enthusiasm 19 years ago to promote ecumenism and cooperative social action among Christian churches, the council has come under increasing fire lately. Critics-many of them inside the N.C.C. -argue that its cumbersome bureaucracy can do little more than issue position papers on current problems, and that practical accomplishments like its controversial Delta Ministry, which works among poor Mississippi Negroes, are rare exceptions. During preparations for this month's triennial general assembly in Detroit, Christian Century predicted that the N.C.C. would see "a crunch of intense feelings and an unleashing of the urge to tell it like...

Candice Bergen poses as though she belongs on the prow of a ship-and says that she "can't think of anything grimmer than being an ageing actress; god, it's worse than being an ageing homosexual." Rudolf Nureyev romps with Cecil Beaton; Jeanne Moreau presses her fingers nervously to her mouth; Malcolm Muggeridge scowls in fearsome closeup.

Years of music study, for one thing -at the Manhattan School of Music, Princeton, Brandeis and a year of graduate work at the Free University in Berlin. At Manhattan, Gelles studied under Michael Steinberg, a distinguished musicologist who now writes reviews for the Boston Globe. Like Steinberg, Critic Gelles insists upon high musical standards. Four weeks ago in the Globe, Steinberg chided Carlo Maria Giulini, guest conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. If Danny Kaye or Victor Borge had conducted "with such crazed dislocation of tempo and with such prodigality in expression of tragic suffering and deep knee-bends," wrote...
