Billed as a thriller, Gently Does It scares no one. And a steady stream of undisguised hints wash away any trace of suspense. Against a background of urban England, Oliver, as Edward Bare, plays a limey opportunist who, for a chance to travel abroad, kills one wife and marries a second. A sharp voice for his uneducated but shrewd conceit, the facial expressions which change with the varying moods of flattery and hate, and the complete lack of human warmth all combine to make Bare a wonderful villain. It is this performance which is primarily responsible for keeping the play...
...This World. Wartime travel, the food editors agreed, whetted men's palates for new tastes, brought demands for dishes grandma never dreamed of. "When they telephone us," said the Dallas Times-Herald's Dorothy Sinz, "they ask for specifics. Grandma's recipes aren't any good any more-nor, for that matter, was grandma's food ever very good."

...masterpieces as Hieronymous Bosch's Temptation of St. Anthony, Aelbert Cuyp's Horsemen Halting on a Road, Pieter Bruegel's The Carnival. Next week the artmobile will take off on a statewide tour (possibly three years) with stops planned so that no Virginian will have to travel more than 15 miles to see the show.

In 1859, when Sigmund was three, father Jakob abandoned his son's birthplace, the Moravian town of Freiburg, and went after better business first in Leipzig and then Vienna. Freud so hated this uprooting that he detested Vienna ever after. To travel, to leave Vienna behind, became a lifelong passion. But one of the greatest love-hate paradoxes in Freud's life is that while regularly railing at Vienna, he stuck closely to it. For 47 years he lived in the same Viennese house; and when Briton Jones arrived to take...
...bankruptcy and scared most cine-moguls out of their ulcers, began its second year last week. Cinerama celebrated its birthday playing to capacity crowds in New York, Chicago, Detroit and Los Angeles. It had not only grossed a phenomenal $4,300,000 but had also become a social phenomenon. Travel bureaus this summer were flooded with requests from people who wanted to see the original of what they saw in Cinerama: the Grand Canyon, the canals of Venice, the bull rings of Spain. Even the roller coaster at New York's Rockaway Playland-the opening attraction in Cinerama...
