...PLACE FOR POLLY, a new production of Lonnie Coleman's comedy formerly known as She Didn't Say Yes, concerns a girl who has to compete with her older sister for everything-even her own publisher husband. Starring Joan Hackett, Darryl Hickman and Betsy von Furstenberg, the play will open in New Fairfield, Conn., on Aug. 11; in Westport, Conn., Aug. 18; in Ivoryton, Conn...
...that the Kennedy bubble has burst, has it been just a bubble? Was it a highly organized spectacular, glistening and eye-catching enough to serve as a short cut to high office but lacking in maturity and substance? The people of the U.S. would do well to place the fortunes of our country in the hands of those who have won their spurs each step...
...simplistic moral schema. There are good guys, like Captain America, drooled over in infatuated close-ups, and bad guys, the yahoos of the South and over-thirty America in general. The good guys are warding off the yahoos (a young commune member prays to God "Thank you for a place to make a stand.") Billy and Wyatt die because they are free, like all good guys.

Within a changing Catholicism, the African church itself is changing, seeking to break its identification with the colonial past and to find its place within the emerging nations (see box, page 65). The Church is growing so fast that realistic estimates of its adherents range from 30 million to 40 million-by far the largest Christian body in Africa. As Rome has turned over control of missionaries to some 320 local dioceses and 28 episcopal conferences, the church in Africa has become more autonomous. But it must still depend heavily on outside financial support...
