...Brandeis University So-(1939) ciologist Samuel E. Wallace, who helped organize the most recent Bowery research program, "the fact that Skid Rowers share both money and drink is perhaps the most conclusive proof that most of them are not alcoholics; alcoholics would find it exceedingly difficult to exercise the control dictated by group drinking." The New York study also revealed that Skid Row is not the end of the road in the usual despairing sense. Its residents do not fall there, but actively seek it out because it has what they want: odd jobs without purpose or future, a community...
...generic name, they might well be called Spivaks (after Lawrence, the host, of course). This year yet another species of the genus Spivak - the Novak, it might be labeled - was launched on 15 Metromedia TV and radio stations and eight public-TV channels.

Julia Child, appalled by his use of canned asparagus and packaged ham slices, writes his program off as "a desecration of fine cooking." He is producing "a personality show or a ladies' show," she says. "He's a tall, handsome, well-proportioned young man, and many women like to look at handsome...
...lots of friends." More typical of the U.S. players abroad is Brabender's teammate, Miles Aiken, 27, a center from St. Bonaventure. He regards his sojourn in sunny Spain as an interesting but temporary cultural adventure, and plans to return to the U.S. to work in the poverty program...
