...been widely publicized throughout the world, the poll conducted by Poling has so far received very little attention from the general public. This leads people to think that all, not some, clergymen in the U.S. are in favor of accommodation with the atheistic regime that tortured and drove Roman Catholic nuns from the Chinese mainland. Particularly tragic is the effect on the morale of young American soldiers who are fighting in Viet Nam. If their own church leaders favor accommodation with Communists, why should they give up their lives to resist them...
...sewn a stocking. My husband will have to give me a houseful of servants if he wants a hot dinner and clean clothes now and then." Most women who talked like that would drive their husbands to uxoricide, but fortunately, Italian Actress Rosanna Schiaffino, 26, married a well-heeled Roman producer who can afford to have someone else wash his shirts. Besides, Rosanna has other advantages, such as resembling Gina Lollobrigida and going out to earn her own stocking money.

Last week another hopeful change took place: the venerable Greg got a new rector, French Canadian Jesuit Hervé Carrier, 45. Sociologist Carrier, who studied at Harvard and the Sorbonne, has a number of changes in mind for the university's regime, including the substitution of discussion groups...
...first, but only one of the many surprises tucked behind the granite-sheathed fagade of Manhattan's new Whitney Museum of American Art. Even in a time that has seen museum design change from the Roman palazzos favored by turn-of-the-century architects to the spiraling extravaganza of Frank Lloyd Wright's Guggenheim, and Mies van der Rohe's austere glass cube for Houston's Museum of Fine Arts, the $6,000,000 Whitney, designed by Marcel Breuer and Hamilton Smith, was the event and talk of the evening...
