...Maui Hotel is so revered an institution that some of its affluent guests (like Faithful Vacationer Marshall Field Jr.) arrange to skip Honolulu completely, fly by private plane directly in and out of Maui. Just within the past six months, a first-class championship golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones has opened, flanked by two new luxury resorts. One is the Royal Lahaina. a 32-cottage settlement and semiprivate club. The new Sheraton-Maui is less expensive but more spectacular. Perched high on an escarpment of black rock, the 150-room hotel hangs like a scalloped upside-down cake...
...interior has a spectacular view and an excellent cuisine. Puerto Rico's finest hotel is the Dorado Beach, 20 miles west of San Juan, built by Laurance Rockefeller and spread out over 1,200 acres, which include a private airport and a championship golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones...
...PRIESTS & RELIGIOUS. The Council of Trent set up the principle of incardination, which binds most parish priests to serve permanently in the diocese in which they are ordained. Many churchmen feel that the rule is too rigid for the world of today.

A few Protestant theologians actually appeared at Trent in the winter of 1551, but, as Luther himself remarked: "The remedy comes too late; it will not achieve...
Vatican I had nearly as vast an agenda as Trent; yet in four argument-ridden sessions in 1869 and 1870, the 774 bishops succeeded only in formulating two decrees: papal infallibility and a statement on the nature of faith. More than one-fifth of the bishops did not want papal infallibility defined, and 55 of them walked out of the council rather than vote on the decree (all ultimately accepted it). A storm raged over Rome on the day the doctrine was approved; each favorable vote was echoed from outside St. Peter's Basilica by an awesome clap...
