STRATFORD, CONN.--The new production of Henry V, as conceived and directed by Michael Kahn, never fails to hold the attention. It is, however, essentially a wilful distortion and cheapening of Shakespeare's play. Last season Kahn, with daring and imaginative updating, achieved the seemingly impossible by turning the inferior and (I thought) no-longer-viable Love's Labour's Lost into a dazzling success. Now, having been promoted by the Festival's top brass to the post of Artistic Director, the 30-year-old Kahn has applied the same daring and imaginative updating to a play that is simply...
With an undefeated season under its belt, and the mythical national championship in its pocket. Harvard's varsity lightweight crew will go, after a higher goal--the Thames Cup--when it competes this week in the annual Regatta at Henley-on-Thames, England...

...that they decided it might be cheaper to sponsor him on the pro circuit with a first-year guarantee of $20,000 in expenses against 50% of his winnings. At first, it looked like a bad investment. After quitting the Army, Moody won only $12,950 in his rookie season. Despondent, he went for advice to Jim Hiskey, a former tour golfer now assigned to the President's leadership and prayer breakfast program. "He directed me to the Bible," says Moody, a Baptist who never smokes, "and taught me to say things to myself...
