...Fillmore Auditorium, San Francisco's hangar-sized discotheque. Though modern jazz normally goes over with teen agers like a 9 p.m. curfew, Lloyd's passionate attack held them spellbound. Wrapping his gangling frame around his tenor saxophone, he explored the full range of the instrument, ricocheting be tween hoarse blats and urgent bleats, pouring out great churning whirlpools of sound. Dipping and bobbing as he played, he flew off on melodic tangents that were by turns coy and playful, ten der and savage. Then, taking up his flute, he turned philosopher, evoked the soft and misty moods...
Cobalt in the Head. The brand that they favored was Dow, a Canadian beer brewed in Montreal and Quebec. But no problem had been encountered in Montreal. What was the difference be tween the two brewing processes? In Quebec, an extra dose of a cobalt salt had been added to build and hold the beer's foamy head. When? One month before the first patient's symptoms appeared. Though the amount of cobalt was well below legal levels, and though no conclusive cause-effect proof could be made, Dow dumped $1,260,000 worth of the suds into...
Reporters, said Hart, inevitably slant the news - often by not covering it. He cited the case of his own truth-in-packaging bill, passed by Congress last month, which laid down new standards for labeling of packaged foods (meaningless designations like "giant half-quart" are forbidden; air space be tween the contents and the top of the box is regulated).

...drive on the Sabbath and, while they view the dietary laws as binding, do not observe them so strictly as the Orthodox. Reform Jews, of course, have no dietary proscriptions, treat the Sabbath much as Christians now treat Sunday. With the growth of suburbia and the resultant distances be tween homes and synagogues, however, more Orthodox Jews are driving to their synagogues. The difference between Conservative and Orthodox Jews in the U.S., says one rabbi, is nowadays only one block: the Conservatives drive right up to the synagogue, while the Orthodox park a block away and walk the rest...
...time in a century, three huge masterworks of Tiepolo's youth, recently acquired by Manhattan's Metropolitan Museum, are being put on exhibition. Part of a ten-work cycle portraying scenes from Roman history,*they were painted for the Ca' Dolfin in Venice some time be tween 1725 and 1730, when Tiepolo was barely 30 years old. Standing between the gloomy realism of his earliest canvases and the lyrical idealism that made his later ceilings look like heaven itself, the paintings help explain Tiepolo's immediate success...
