...Chavez Ravine) - yet every properly baseball-batty Angeleno should have been glued to a television set watching the opening game of the showdown series between the Dodgers and the Cardinals in St. Louis. Thus, organizers of the Barry Goldwater rally had been having Technicolor night mares of rows of pink, aqua and maize stadium seats - all empty...
Inside St. Peter's, the nave is still filled with the long rows of seats set up for the Vatican Council (which resumes next week); the papal audience takes place in the transept behind the high altar.
