After the Wisconsin bombing last week, Governor Warren Knowles angrily pronounced it "an insane act." Whether or not the bombing was clinically pathological, it did have a twisted political rationale. Officials at the math center maintain that they work only on "pure research" projects, nonclassified problems that may be of interest to industry as well as to the military. Although the Army this year allocated $1,200,000 for the center, the university says that most of its staff members are civilians...
...emphasis of the seventh-grade sessions was placed on youngsters' social problems," while even "twelfth graders would learn more about the problems of raising a family than they would about sexual intercourse." Nevertheless, the Antis saw it as the evil of all evils -a Communist plot to brainwash pure-minded America. Atheism, rock 'n' roll, even the U.K. were minor perils beside sex education.

Orton would not bow to the times, but circumstances eventually bent to him. His last play, What the Butler Saw, is now an off-Broadway smash. The American stage production of Entertaining Mr. Sloane lasted only 13 performances; the film version is a savagely witty...
...most consistently popular of the sacred cantatas. The purity of its vocal settings, when performed by an adequate soprano, places it among the most starkly beautiful of Bach's vocal works. Benita Valente, Monday night's soloist, is a perfect Bach soprano. She has a clear, pure voice, without any of the excess floridity or overblown style which is fatal in a Bach performance. Miss Valente and the orchestra gave a highly correct interpretation of the work, yet no one devoid of feeling. The work, originally composed for the Lutheran services on the fifteenth Sunday after Trinity, contains two elaborate...
