...French horn and trombone players scattered throughout the church sounded a hauntingly dissonant hymn by Danish Composer Per Norgard worthy of John Cage. Seated together with Sweden's octogenarian King Gustaf VI Adolf, was another secular guest, Zambia's President Kenneth Kaunda. The prayer was read by Tanzanian Evangelical Lutheran Bishop Josiah Kibira, resplendent in a stole whose tribal designs stood in dramatic contrast with its white silk background. The program for the 16-day conference included everything from Bible study to some readings from Bertolt Brecht's play St. Joan of the Stockyards...
...took an afternoon to try out a motor scooter in a brisk, hair-raising spin through the byways of the Bois de Boulogne. On the next lap of his summer work-vacation, Bobby pushes on to Dar-es-Salaam, on Africa's east coast.

Tricked out in gaudy tribal trappings, Black Power Warrior Stokely Carmichael, 26, and Click-Singer Miriam Makeba, 36, celebrated their recent marriage at a reception held in Mount Vernon, N.Y., by Akili Danieli, Tanzanian Ambassador to the U.N.

Miriam went to South America for a monthlong concert tour; Stokely holed up in Washington and let the world know that Black Power machinations and marriage were...
Last fall, at a small ceremony in Paris, UNESCO awarded its annual prize for combatting illiteracy to a young Tanzanian girl from the Tabora Girls School. At the initiative of the Headmistress, a Swede, the pupils had undertaken to teach illiterates in the area. It is as unlikely that present programs will wipe out illiteracy in the rest of the world, as that these girls will alphabetize Tanzania. The projects are driving home the twin lesson of the failures of the last 15 years--the magnitude of the problems and the magnitude of the resources that will have...
Dean Ford says that all students will be eeligible to run for next year's Student-Faculty Advisory Committee. However, in order to vote, he cautions, students will have to pay a "small sum" and satisfactorily interpret a section of the Course Catalogue. Tanzanian journalists say that Ho Chi Minh is succumbing to an attack of boils...
