...Laboring Order of the Ark are convinced that their ascetic, antimodern life is the only way that the principles of the Sermon on the Mount can conscientiously be carried out. Oddly enough, the inspiration for this attitude does not come directly from Christ but from the patron saint of modern India, Mohandas Gandhi. "Nowhere have I encountered a political, social, economic and practical doctrine which in my opinion conforms more to Christ's teachings than Gandhi's," says Joseph Lanza del Vasto, 61, the white-bearded, mystical founder and patriarch...
From this indictment, I would except Laudes de Saint Antoine de Padoue by Francis Poulenc, Repleti Segne Euch from Bach's Cantata 196. Harvard sang the first with an admirable attention to pitch (except for an occasional flattening in the tenors) and ended up particularly well with a vigorous Gloria Patri.

"I saw him coming," said Kelso's jockey Ismael Valenzuela, "but I just couldn't do anything about it." At the finish, Match...
...welcome as a new acquisition is an undamaged reacquisition, and last week Saint-Tropez' Annonciade Municipal Museum was readying its blank walls to receive 56 canvases heisted last year in one of the Riviera's most daring fric-fracs (TIME. July 28, 1961). Tipped off by an anonymous letter to France's Minister for Cultural Affairs Andre Malraux, police found the robbers' cache stashed away in a dilapidated barn 50 miles west of Paris. The $1,500,000 worth of art, including works by Matisse, Dufy, Utrillo and Bonnard, had come through the ordeal almost unscathed...
