...flopped, mainly because it lacked a singer of superstar rank. In the past, the company could dredge up any old potboiler, cast Callas or Tebaldi in the lead, and have a resounding success. But now Callas and Tebaldi are little more than memories in Italy. Along with the younger corps of fine singers, they have been lured away by bigger money and better working conditions in the U.S. and elsewhere. What is left is hardly satisfying to the discriminating Italians. "They want the real pasta asciutta," says Tenor Mario del Monaco, "not ersatz spaghetti...
...Diem baiters, and now reports from Paris. Today, Viet Nam reporters hardly get along with each other at all. None but the remotest news is pooled. "I've never worked anywhere in the world where I liked fewer newsmen," admits one old hand. Says a blunter and younger type: "I hate every other goddamned newspaperman in this place...

More than half of the Catholic clergy are foreign-born, including five of Burma's eight bishops, and the country has only one, poorly staffed, college-level seminary...
...pill prevails, baby-food processors can prosper for a while on sheer weight of numbers, higher per-baby consumption and a parallel trend to convenience food. Pet Milk's "Infant Nurse" and Mead Johnson's "Nursette," both prebottled formulas in disposable containers, have been successful with younger mothers. Swift sells strained meats for six-week-olds, keeps them on junior food until four years. Gerber's five original varieties have grown to 130, including cherry vanilla pudding and Dutch apple dessert; the company estimates that today's baby eats 15 jars a week, or almost double...
