...into the grounds because of their exclusion from the Ferrara tennis club under the new "Jewish laws." Their mood is carefree, nevertheless, and is echoed by that of their hosts, the blond ice-maiden Micol (Dominique Sanda), and her sickly brother Alberto (Helmut Berger). Among their guests are Giorgio (Lino Capolicchio), a childhood friend, and Malnate (Fabio Testi), a gentile visitor from Milan. Wrinkling her nose at Malnate's Fascist predilection for the workers of Ferrara, Micol returns his appraising once-over with "you're too much the industrious Lombard--besides, you're too hairy." Next to Malnate's animality...
...Died. Lino Zanussi, 48, pioneer producer of Italy's modern home appliances; of injuries suffered in a plane crash; near San Sebastián, Spain.

Where Falla departed from his familiar style was in the sparing use of folk material and in the skillful use of a descriptive chorus. Atlantida has only three major singing roles: Narrator Corifeo (Baritone Lino Puglisi), Queen Pyrene (Mezzo Giulietta Simionato), and Queen Isabella (Soprano Teresa Stratas). Much of the action is either pantomime or dancing...
Back to Rome. Behind the apparent surrender lay a long and bitter assault on the church by Trujillo. The man most responsible for awakening the hierarchy last year was Papal Nuncio Lino Zanini who arrived in Ciudad Trujillo only three months before the pastoral, looked around and told the bishops to fight. After the pastoral, the nuncio received anonymous letters threatening his life. Boston-born Bishop Thomas Reilly found his residence encircled by secret police goons, was trailed wherever he went, was threatened with expulsion, even violent death...
