...paper over to his wife Betty three years ago, aims to take another crack at the machine. He now serves as a staff assistant, spending most of his time doing the investigative work he hopes will lead to better government in Morrilton. Wirges can count on some potent moral-and material-support from Republican Governor Winthrop Rockefeller. The Governor, whose 7,500-acre Winrock Farms ranch lies just outside Morrilton, has already provided Wirges with office space in Little Rock, secretaries, financial support and top-drawer legal assistance...
Preaching at San Francisco's Grace Cathedral, Myers argued that the size and the scope of the problems facing Christianity made it imperative for the church to unite under a single authoritative spokesman.

Some of the dances catch fire, notably a G.I. close-order drill done with smoking speed to syncopated shouts, and in a show that is more candied than candid, Leslie Uggams and Robert Hooks perform with unblemished, infectiously likable honesty. Apart from being lovely to look at, Uggams has a shy sly smile that burgles the theater house. She can cradle...
