However, two fine shorts run the first forty-five minutes at the Brattle, and might alone be worth the price. Both are art-house standards, and worthily so. Luis Bunuel's first film, Un Chien Andalou (a 1928 collaboration with artist-entrepreneur Salvador Dali), will either fascinate or frustrate with its free-association stream of symbols. (If you get completely lost in these fifteen unusual minutes, just remember violence symbolizes sex, the dead mules on the piano symbolize sex, and ants symbolize masturbation.) Exploited sometimes as Bunuel's creation or more accurately as Dali's, Chien Andalou exhibits the most...
...notable names, there was no end: Umberto, ex-King of Italy; Juscelino Kubitschek, ex-President of Brazil; Stavros Niarchos, ex-husband of Charlotte Ford Niarchos. For titles, there were the Maharanee of Baroda, the Duke and Duchess of Bedford, Princess Ira von Furstenberg and Vicomtesse Jacqueline de Ribes. Salvador Dali materialized, so to speak. So did Hollywood Director Vincente Minnelli, Sonja Henie, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Audrey Hepburn, Françoise Sagan and Penelope Tree...
...Taylor raises the specter of genetic warfare-one nation permanently weakening the people of another by infecting them with potent lab-made viruses carrying damaging hereditary material.

At least 78 people died, and further disaster struck searchers for the 100 or more still missing when a sudden sheet of flame engulfed a carload of rescuers, incinerating all ten occupants. Nearby Nicaragua, Salvador and Mexico offered aid, and U.S. C-130 transports mounted a shuttle service of relief supplies for 5,000 evacuees from the devastated area. Helicopters were offered for rescue work but could not get close enough to the fire-belching mountain because the clouds of ash were too thick...
Latin America has been largely overlooked by the presidential aspirants, but the man still in office has not forgotten it. Last week, as reassurance to the U.S.'s southern neighbors, President Johnson flew to San Salvador for a minisummit with the presidents of five Central American republics: El Salvador, Costa Rica, Honduras, Nicaragua and Guatemala. Before leaving Texas, he conferred with Bolivia's President Rene Barrientos Ortuno at the L.B.J. ranch and played host to ambassadors from 20 Latin countries at San Antonio's HemisFair, itself a symbol of inter-American solidarity. The Administration hoped that...
