...masterpiece, and for those of us who know and love Earth, he has assuredly succeeded, in spite of the complexity of Earth's many images, in drawing clearly a portrait of Earth as a Christian man whose religious personality leaves one of the finest memories of utter charm and humanity...
...teachers have borrowed much of their religious vocabulary from existentialism and from Harvard's Paul Tillich. Talk at the community is dense with jargon-the "over-againstness" of God, the "Christ-Event," "gatheredness" and "scatteredness." From the late Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the community has taken the Christian's utter commitment to life. Man, according to Austin Experimenter James Wagener, "gets cosmic permission to live out his life as a guilty man."

...attack by Cambridge Don Leavis has been topic A in London literary circles for weeks.

Twisted, small, weak, Belmonte survived with courage that was more than a match for his inability to move with the bull. "My legs were...
Mouth of Hell. Some planes followed the first wave on its wrong course, others plunged on toward Ploesti. Over the target, there was utter confusion. Planes roared in over the city from all different directions, often had to swerve to avoid head-on collisions. German gunners laid a curtain of flak over the refineries; Liberators flying lower than factory smokestacks were buffeted by exploding oil storage tanks. Luftwaffe Messerschmitts buzzed around the sheets of flame to pick off the disorganized and wounded bombers. Said a survivor: "We were dragged through the mouth of hell...
