...MacBride completes an exhaustive study on the subject. In addition, the International Telecommunications Union will meet next fall to consider the first redistribution of world radio frequencies in 20 years. The frequencies are now dominated by the West and the Soviets. Third World nations are agitating for a better slice of the spectrum and for the right to block direct satellite broadcasting across national borders...
...Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, the smallest member of the musical circle, is observing its tenth anniversary in the grand manner of the Met. There was the four-tiered monument of a cake that was wheeled onstage at Alice Tully Hall during the first concert (with a slice for everyone in the audience afterward).

Many are desperately hoping they will be allowed to offer checking-with-interest accounts of their own or other services that may help curb a loss of depositors...
...Louis and left wing Cat Ferrante then began to slice through the Brown defense with more frequency, running onto long passes from each other that foreshadowed the second coming of a goal. St. Louis also tallied this one, pouncing on a looping ball that handcuffed Brown's squat center fullback Darcy Fernald, and then, as before, quickly and quietly putting the ball through the posts...
