ILLICH HAS a fascinating background. Austrian by birth, he studied history, philosophy and theology in Rome, Salzburg and Vienna. He served as an assistant pastor in a Puerto Rican parish in New York City for five years and then as a monsignor and vice-rector of the Catholic University of Puerto Rico for another four years. He was dismissed from the latter post in 1960 after a controversy arose over his role in the island's birth control program. He then helped found the Intercultural Documentation Center in Cuernavace, Mexico, where he wrote Celebration of Awareness, Deschooling Society and Tools...
Annemarie's success story was as schmaltzy as a Viennese operetta. Born to a poor mountain-farm family in Klein-Arl near Salzburg, she was the sixth of eight children. When "Annemie" was 4, her father whittled her first pair of skis. "From then on," says her mother, "I hardly saw Annemie during the day. She even skipped breakfast to make a few runs before school began." She paid at best only minimal attention to her studies during her nine years of schooling, much preferring to test, and often beat the boys in climbing, skiing, even schoolyard brawling...
Side Trips. Accompanied by Henry Kissinger, Secretary of State William Rogers, a staff of 36 and a mammoth press corps of 260, the President and his First Lady last Saturday flew off to Salzburg, Austria, for two days of rest and sightseeing.

After that he will fly to Iran for one day and to Poland for another before returning on June...
...most Americans, the name Austria conjures up pleasant visions of ski weeks at Innsbruck, Vienna Sachertorte, Salzburg's music. Few people now recall two important events in that country that led up to World War II and betrayed a darker side of the Austrian character. One was the assassination of Austrian Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss by local Nazis in 1934, part of a coup that failed. The other, which so dramatically succeeded, was the Anschluss of 1938, when the German army annexed Austria unopposed...
Songs by Hugo Wolf (Seraphim; $2.98). A single LP made from off-the-air tapes of one of Soprano Elisabeth Schwarzkopf's finest and most famous hours as a lieder singer- her recital in the Salzburg Mozarteum on Aug. 12, 1953. Words and melody blend the way they do partly because of her eminent piano accompanist, Wilhelm Furtwangler, who on this record plays the way he usually conducted: rounding phrases majestically, seeing to it that voice and instrument are blended perfectly...
