...Idleness. Somehow, everyone stays a part of the Catholic community in Cuernavaca. Gregoire Lemercier and most of his monks are now laymen, operating a psychoanalytic center near the old monastery grounds. Their elegant religious art is still sold on the cathedral grounds, and Lemercier, now married, is still close to the bishop. Ivan Illich's center, legally a secular institution, is now secular in mood as well, and currently has a record enrollment of more than 600, including many non-Catholics. Méndez Arceo still speaks warmly and publicly of Illich's "participation in Cuernavaca...
...discovered near Africa's Lake Victoria and dubbed Kenyapithecus africanus belonged to the earliest known manlike creature (TIME, Feb. 3, 1967). After applying their dental tests' to casts of Leakey's prehistoric fragments, the Yalemen decided that Kenyapithecus lacked the characteristics of early man.

Or, in other words, "not just the havenots, but also the haves who have something to say." Along these more practical lines, the Smotherses have also reorganized their production company. The trouble with the old company, says Tommy, is that "all our beautiful intentions didn't have a solid foundation of financial logic and production schedules behind them. We had all those long-haired creative types walking around, but none of those smart cats in brown...
This is the year of what the trade calls the Supergroup: bright new combinations of established stars drawn from fragmented combos, who are jamming together in much the same way jazz musicians used to do. Early this year, for example, David Crosby (ex-Byrds) got together with Stephen Stills (ex-Buffalo Springfield) and Graham Nash (ex-Hollies) to form a group called, logically enough, Crosby, Stills & Nash. Last month, sounding more and more like a law firm, it became Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young when another Springfield boy, Neil Young, joined up. Still another all-star collection is Led Zeppelin, created...
