...born bachelor of 37, Pastor Glenesk was educated at the University of Toronto and Columbia, worked as a professional teacher, actor and social worker before his ordination. He was called to Spencer in 1955. It was then a staid little parish faced with the prospect of expanding or closing shop. Much to the dismay of oldtimers at Spencer-one of them calls him "that big clown clunking around the church in leotards"-Glenesk decided to make a play for the newcomers in Brooklyn Heights, many of them arts-conscious, church-shy refugees from Greenwich Village.

...committee hopes that construction can be started this summer, and that the pavilion will be ready for use during 1954-65.

Right-to-work's prime target is the union shop, in which workers must join a union to keep their jobs. To overcome resistance to such compulsory union membership, labor has written agency-shop clauses into contracts covering an estimated 1,000,000 workers. But in 19 of the right-to-work states, the agency shop is now doomed. Among them, only heavily industrialized Indiana specifically permits it, and labor's only recourse...
