...ALBERT AYLER, NEW GRASS (impulse!). Alto Saxophonist Ayler uses a gospel-rock background and a group called The Soul Singers to help him get a mystical word across: "The music I bring to you is of a different dimension in my life, the message one of spiritual love, peace and understanding." The tension of his wavering whines and reedy growls is somewhat dispelled by the propelling, regular beat, making such tunes as New Generation and Everybody's Movin' an oddly felicitous blend of spiritual and material...
...past rather than innovate or modernize. Last week's election was no exception, despite a strong bid for power by the Labor Party, which fielded a slate of intellectuals, most notably Dr. Conor Cruise O'Brien. A onetime United Nations representative in the Congo, and most recently Albert Schweitzer Professor at New York University, O'Brien returned to Ireland, as he put it, "to give this country a credible "alternative...
...post-Civil War Midwest, a twelve-year-old orphan named George (Edward Albert) runs away from his guardians. His life takes on a Huckleberry hue, and a series of encounters leads him to the beginning of maturity. His first is with Dirty Jim (Henry Hull), an unregenerate old buzzard who prattles of "a fool killer," who poleaxes wrongdoers as they sleep. The figure haunts George's dreams until he actually finds him in the person of another fugitive: Milo Bogardus (Anthony Perkins...
...impassioned 4,500-word, 40-minute speech, Paul gave his listeners a sympathetic, near-encyclopedic appraisal of the problems of the workingman. He quoted New Left Philosopher Herbert Marcuse, lamenting that technology was threatening to turn man into a creature of "one dimension," and warmly praised French Socialist Albert Thomas, who founded the ILO half a century ago. The rebellion of youth, said the Pontiff, "resounds like a signal of suffering and an appeal for justice" against a technological world that has no worthwhile place for them...
...General Theory of Relativity that Albert Einstein published in 1916 pro posed nothing less than an all-embrac ing theory of gravity. Over the years, as scientists devised increasingly subtle experiments to test Einstein's predictions, the General Theory withstood all challenges But no one was able to check Einstein's conclusion that massive celestial bodies accelerating in space or undergoing cataclysmic events should give off gravitational radiation, a form of energy similar to radio waves that travels at the speed of light. This week, after more than a decade of work, University of Maryland Physicist Joseph Weber...
