Hussein also had another, more dangerous mission. During his trip, he talked often and long with the leaders or top diplomats of most Arab states, seeking to persuade them to accept a message that has up to now been pure heresy in Arabia: that the time has come for the Arabs to make their peace with Israel...

...performed. The reason for The Lady's long and happy life is its language. Christpoher Fry has a Chinanman's fascination for high-meaning word plays, mixed with an Irishman's compulsive wit. He cannot bear to write a line, for even the lowliest of characters, which is not pure honey. The flow of mellifluous banter carries the play along, and on it floats truth after home truth. Few writers and fewer playwrights can mix colloquial expressions with genuine poetry as smoothly as can Christophesr Fry. It is natural that he should use an unabashedly romantic, medieval background to make...

Son of a wealthy Santurce businessman, "Charlito" Pasarell is the reigning U.S. indoor champion, the No.3-ranked player in the nation, and the possessor of a big serve that he boldly calls "the Bomb."

Diana Davila's Hermia has an unpleasant voice that an occasion indulges in pure squeal- ing; and she doesn't seem to understand what she is mouthing much of the time. Dorothy Tristan's Helena shows a wider vocal range and considerable skill as a farceuse. When she pleads to Demetrius, "Give me leave...to follow you," she waddles on her knees with comic aggressiveness; and when Lysander describes himself as "touching now the point of human skill," she instinctively grasps her breasts in self-protection...

...result is almost pure Utopia. Nauruans enjoy free schools, medical and dental care, electricity and water, pay minimal rents and no import duties or taxes. Under an agreement announced last week by Australia to the U.N. Trusteeship Council, Nauruans will be given partial control of the mining industry July 1; after they finish paying for it in three years, they will get complete control. Under the complex new arrangements, most of the profits from the phosphate diggings will be held in trust and reinvested. Conservative estimates are that 30 years from now, when the phosphate deposits have finally...
