...David Archibald, clarinet, and D. Allan Shewmon, piano. The height of the evening was the massive Piano Trio (1904-1911), whose second movement bears the indication "TSIAJ" ("This Scherzo is a Joke"). This is one of those pieces that has to be heard live to be appreciated. The sight and sound of Shewmon and 'cellist Fran Uitti ripping their way through their parts was something not to be missed...
...Franconia, Bonnet's troops were every bit as devastating as Napoleon I's. "Le Superman," Jean-Claude Killy, won everything in sight: the giant slalom, the slalom and the downhill, thereby clinching the 1967 World Cup.

In the women's events France's Isabelle Mir won the women's downhill, Christine Beranger the giant slalom, and Marielle Goitschel the slalom. Last week Bonnet took his forces on to Vail, Colo., for the American Internationals Team Race...

But life's little irony is that the playwright has fled, being the sort of man who cannot bear a dirty joke, let alone cast a nude male...
...humbleness." Nor did that aura grow after President Johnson, during a 1964 TV address, called him "a leading industrial economist" and reeled off figures from a bullish Rinfret forecast. Since last summer, Rinfret has been on the side of the bears, predicting a "mild recession" with no upturn in sight until at least the fourth quarter...
