...Senator Kennedy [who met with 51 Methodist bishops and answered questions on his Roman Catholicism-April 27]. But regret that this feature of a semiannual meeting of the Council of Bishops of the Methodist Church was described as an "odd inquisition." Panel quizzes (Meet the Press, Face the Nation, et al.) regularly bring out sharper interrogation via TV networks. How many show producers courteously furnish the "quizzed" with an advance list of questions?

Wooden in plot and undistinguished in writing, The John Wood Case finds its strength in an evocation of the kind of life that the nation may never know again, a society in which the Bible was a fact of life, in which an austere Sunday dinner was eaten in the presence of a blackboard which bore "discussion themes" for the children's conversation-"Honor," "Temperance," "Reverence." It is worth skipping literary graces...
