Commission Member Yves Congar, a French Dominican whose own works were under suspicion in preCouncil days, emphasized that even a broadened Catholic theological spectrum cannot mean "the coexistence of persons holding contrary views." Catholic diversity can only embrace those who share "identical basic views but express them differently." Roman Catholicism simply cannot afford the kind of theological pluralism that liberal Protestantism has enjoyed, says Congar-a limitation, he admits, that is both a strength and a weakness. "My Protestant friends at the World Council marvel that we were able to achieve so much in four sessions of the Vatican Council...
...very first day of the trial, one of the accused, Dr. Yves Gourvès, 25, declared through his lawyer that he would need an interpreter because he spoke only Breton, the native Celtic tongue of Brittany. Up rose District Attorney Pierre Aguiton with an objection. "The defendant speaks and understands French perfectly," he protested. "Otherwise, how could he have finished his medical studies? Besides, he answered pretrial questioning in French." Retorted Gourvès' lawyer, Henri Leclerc: "He may have forgotten his French in jail." The chief judge, François Romerio, asked Gourv...
Closely knit to the fabric boom is the greater availability of patterns by such designers as Yves St. Laurent, Pierre Cardin and Bill Blass. The concept is not new. Vogue put out its first high-fashion patterns back in 1949. But until recently there was a long lag between the appearance of a new style and its patterned reproduction.

By all accounts, Vendredi was well ahead and less than a day from Newport when Lelouch chartered a plane to add some footage to his proposed documentary on his boat's victory, to be called A Man and a Boat. What he got instead was a stunning view...
Chain of Events. The two-hour, 40-minute documentary inevitably evokes comparison with The Sorrow and the Pity (TIME, March 27), an equally graphic chronicle of French life under Nazi occupation during World War II. La Guerre is the work of Yves Courrière, 36, a French journalist who quit his job with Radio Luxembourg to write a history of the Algerian war and later decided to make a film on the subject. "Very few people on either side really knew what was happening, even if they personally witnessed some of the events," says Courrière, who served...
