...passed by the Senate, despite the bitter opposition of Senate President (and former Premier) Amintore Fanfani. Even then, the anti-divorce forces have one last stratagem. They will press for a referendum next year to give the Italian people a chance to repeal the law. Said L'Osservatore Romano, the Vatican daily: "Divorce may have a parliamentary majority, but it is not approved by a majority of Italians." That remains to be seen.

...entertainers are always in demand in Europe, but few enjoy the adulation accorded Songstress Ella Fitzgerald. Making her annual European tour, Miss Ella was warmly welcomed by fans as she strolled down Rome's Via Veneto. She dined early at Giggi Fazi with Romano Mussolini (one of Benito's sons) and his wife Maria (Sophia Loren's sister), then put on a show at the Teatro Sistina that nearly brought the palazzo down. Dressed in a simple blouse and skirt, Ella warbled her standards: Mack the Knife, Mister Paganini, A Man And A Woman, then answered...
