...Fatal Day. On April 3-the day before King was murdered-Gait registered at Memphis' Rebel Motel, and his Mustang was seen parked near Room 34. Clerks said that Gait made no telephone calls through their switchboard, but the lights in the room stayed on all night. Next day John Willard-an alias used by Gait-rented Room 5 in the sleazy rooming house across the street from the Lorraine Motel, where King was shot...
After the shooting, the man called Willard was seen rushing out of the rooming house; the rifle and a ditty bag were found on the street; witnesses reported that the white car tore away at top speed. Amid the confusion, a mysterious radio call described a continuing police chase after the Mustang. The chase went one way, the Mustang another, and the broadcast later was discovered to have been a fake. The killer had been given his chance to escape...
...Montreal's Expo 67, it lugged along 95 choristers, 48 soloists, 99 instrumentalists, 50 dancers, 127 staff assistants, 193 tons of scenery and five tons of Russian edibles. When Rome's Piccolo Teatro Musicale arrived in Manhattan last week, there was a little less to be seen-a handful of singers and players, one slightly overweight conductor, and a compact bundle of slats, screws and canvas that weighed scarcely more than a ton.

They should collaborate with performers; then, instead of looking to new instruments to produce new sounds, they would develop insight into existing instruments. I think it would be nice to particinate...
...Newsweek's, among others) had suggested. Lucas's premise comes direct from Alphaville and 1984: in a computer-run dehumanized society where everyone is numbered and serves a function, one man is in undefined revolt. The entire action of the film consists of his running through endless corridors, largely seen through computer monitors. The idea is simple and effective, and extraordinarily well filmed; the initial shot of the rebel, THX 1138 4EB, running toward the camera of a closed-circuit television instantly evokes a gut empathetic reaction, and the color and opticals (dissolves mostly) are employed with flair and discipline...
