Papp's vision of the play is a daring one; he has communicated some, but not all of it, to his cast. Martin Sheen, recently seen as one of the punks in The Incident (TIME, Nov. 10), brings to the title role an imaginative boisterousness not unlike his superior work in that film; Ralph Waite is a dashingly demagogic Claudius. Anita Dangler is a fluttery flibbertigibbet of a Gertrude, while April Shawhan is a sexy, miniskirted Ophelia. Gait MacDermot's pounding rock background seems at least as appropriate to this version of the play as the gentle pleasing...
...Among bishops most prominently mentioned as his successor: John F. Dearden of Detroit; Francis F. Reh, head of the North American College in Rome; Fulton J. Sheen of Rochester; John J. Maguire, the temporary administrator of the New York archdiocese; John J. Wright of Pittsburgh...
Last Saturday, T ended his program with a 10 minute cut from a Lenny Bruce tape. The monologue described Jesus and Moses coming down to earth one Sunday morning to hear "a double billing with Sheen and Spellman at St. Pats."

...gratifying for Rochester's Bishop Fulton J. Sheen, 72, to learn that somebody out there was paying attention to his appeal last month for funds to aid "the poor of the world." Just three weeks later, a winning ticket in New York State's monthly lottery was pulled from the barrel plainly marked "Bishop Sheen World Poor, Rochester, N.Y." One of 1,445 winners, the ticket will be worth between $150 and $100,000, depending on future drawings...
Founded and sponsored by Oil Heiress Rebekah Harkness, a longtime ballet buff, the company offers ensemble work of high sheen, which is now expected on the American scene, along with dynamic soloistic virtuosity, which is not. Of the 18 works in its repertory only one (a restaging by Director Brian Macdonald of The Firebird) ranks as a classic standby. The other 17 range from abstract studies in pure motion to dance translations of contemporary headlines. In Stuart Hodes' Abyss, a pair of fragile lovers are attacked by three hoodlums; Rudi van Dantzig's Monument for a Dead...
