...behind is Melchor Ferrer (no kin to Broadway's Jose), an experienced actor. His performance in Lost Boundaries, as the Negro doctor who secretly crosses the color line, is one of the year's best. Scarcely a newcomer, but definitely a comer, is Richard Widmark. It took two years and three pictures for 20th Century-Fox to dilute the Widmark venom into the milk of human kindness; in Down to the Sea in Ships, the public lapped the milk up eagerly. Slattery's Hurricane, Widmark's latest picture, will feed them some more...
...these newcomers is Montgomery Clift, sometimes called "the hottest thing in Hollywood." Clift, 28, earned fine reviews on Broadway in The Skin of Our Teeth and The Searching Wind before he went to Hollywood. There he refused long-term contracts, picked scripts shrewdly. Last year, in his first two pictures-M-G-M's The Search and Howard Hawks's Red River-his good acting and good looks clicked immediately...

In the particular case of Prague's Archbishop Beran, some Catholic authorities fear that the Communist government would consider his elevation a provocative act, and retaliate by attacking...
...Chalmers (who was California-bound to take over North Hollywood's Harvard School), lean, 41-year-old John Oliver Patterson has never been a monastic. Born in Goldfield, Nev., he was originally trained as an architect at the University of Illinois and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After two years as a practising architect the new "pater" left his drawing board for the ministry, now has 15 bustling years in Midwestern parishes behind him. In the last eight years he has swelled his Madison, Wis. congregation from 600 to 1,500, housed the overflow in a streamlined Quonset-type...
