What to Buy in Europe One tourist pleasure many Americans overlook is buying phonograph records in Europe. The selection is enormous; prices, while higher, are not prohibitive, and there is something to satisfy just about every taste. In the middle ground between classical music and rock 'n' roll, both of which abound in European record stores, are Portuguese fados, Neapolitan tenors, Scots pipers, Spanish flamencos, German beer songs, French chanteuses, Welsh miners, nightclub and music-hall performers, tin ny little village bands and Tyrolean yodelers.

...collection of Kerouacky kinks. Gnossos turns on four times a day, calls girls "man," says "dig" a great deal, makes like the Green Hornet with cringing officials at Mentor University, rucksacks triumphantly to Mexico, Las Vegas and Cuba, knows how to hot-wire a car, plays Corelli on his phonograph, and even wins acceptance as an equal by Negro bartenders.

Pennel works days as a wine salesman, and the household chores-including cooking-fall to Seagren. "Mostly," he says, "we eat steak, because it's easy." Along the way, Pennel persuaded Seagren to keep trying...
...Bell & Howell, took a three-week course in cinematography in Rochester -the only film training he ever had. Returning north, he shot some terrific footage of a walrus hunt, some beautiful quiet splices of life in an igloo, some hilarious takes in which an Eskimo ate a phonograph record and got bounced on his behind by a seal. All these reels he assembled in a 70-minute film, a polar pastoral volted with the same vitality that sizzles in the Eskimo...
