Soundings have already begun to find out whether they will give the current plans a better reception than those of 1955 got. Lost week, several University officials, including Goyette and Edward S. Gruson, assistant to the President for Community Relations, met with residents of the neighborhood...
Koumiko Muroaka is a woman, who, we are told, Marker "met by accident" when he was filming the Tokyo Olympics. She is apolitical, extremely beautiful, highly independent, and, Marker insists, representative of nothing other than herself. The film consists of Marker's visions of Tokyo, his visions of Koumiko, his visions of Tokyo as tempered by Koumiko, and Koumiko's visions of herself as interpreted by Marker. Instead of treating these sequentially, Marker intercuts these segments, making sure to indicate clearly which point of view is being given. Multiple points of view, equally valid and independent, destroy any direct causal...
Saving Face. It was Dirksen who saved the Administration from its own intransigence. Acting without White House approval, he met quietly with Majority Leader Mike Mansfield and negotiated a face-saving compromise.

He baptized, confirmed and gave First Communion to 22 young Uganda converts, telling them that being...
Whatever the solutions to these questions, the African bishops who met with Pope Paul made it clear that the answers would have a uniquely African flavor. Speaking to the prelates last week, Upper Volta's Paul Cardinal Zoun-grana pointed to the Africanization of liturgy as a good example. "Rather than a primitive outlook," said the cardinal, the rituals "represent an African way of thinking and way of life." Pope Paul went even further, telling the bishops on his arrival that they could give the Church "the precious and original contribution of negritude which she needs particularly...
