...your article on astrology [March 21], you included a description and picture of a white witch-Dennis Boiling (Antares Auriel); I am that person. Apart from slandering the great witch mother and high priestess Sybil Leek, the article was a wretched anathema...
...Mother Glory. The semipermanent Russian flotilla is nothing if not well-organized. The largest Russian "mother" vessels measure half again as long as a football field and constitute floating factories in which the daily hauls of up to 20 trawlers are processed, frozen and stored. They also supply and refuel the smaller vessels and can haul them out of the water for repairs.

...below before they reach the haven of heaven above. The Premier has already remembered his church at Elaiohorion by giving it new pews and a lectern, an icon stand and a bishop's chair.

In Dirahion, a split-level village where a fast-running mountain stream divides the town, the wrinkled village clerk explains why. "It was in 1947, right there," he says pointing. "Ioannis Ladas' mother tried to run across the street, carrying a baby nephew in her arms. Guerrillas shot her down, killed them both. She was a good woman." In Elaiohorion, Mayor and Cafe Proprietor Nikos Papathanasou, a distant cousin of Papadopoulos, was tortured by Communists, and so were three other men. The village doctor...
