...good opportunity for theologians to gather and learn how far they had come since Vatican II and how far they had yet to go. Sponsored by Concilium, a five-year-old international journal of theology edited by some of Catholicism's most progressive thinkers, the congress provided an array of theological superstars including The Netherlands' Edward Schillebeeckx, France's Yves Congar, Germany's Karl Rahner, Hans Küng and Johan Metz. Participants came from 32 countries, including 40 from Asia, Africa and Latin America. Some 700 observers signed up and nearly 200 journalists arrived...
...trains a laser beam on a ground objective like a spotlight. The second plane dashes in and tosses a bomb, which follows the laser to the target. These U.S. countermeasures, however, were developed in a less sophisticated time. No one knows how they will work against the more modern array of antiaircraft missiles that the Israelis now face across the Suez Canal...
...Pocket. The solution, Pedrick decided, was to find a way to keep the ball from going into its spin-even if it is imperfectly hit. His proposed club would do just that.

The pocket, in effect, would grip the ball and reduce its tendency to spin-regardless of the angle at which the golfer whacked...
...work. Indeed, its present condition is a remarkable fulfillment of its initial promise. Organized in 1940 as Ballet Theatre ("American" was added in 1956), the company prospered from the start; one reason was that with Europe at war, New York had become the refuge of a staggering array of imported talent. Backed by the millions of Philanthropist and sometime Dancer Lucia Chase, Founding Director Richard Pleasant was able to put together an opening season with a roster that read like a Who's Who of the dance world. Michel Fokine, Anton Dolin and Antony Tudor were among the choreographers...
...more outside investment. Last week, at his personal invitation, 32 chairmen, presidents and other high executives of some of the largest North American corporations arrived in Teheran for a six-day conference with Iranian officials to investigate further possibilities for bringing in private capital. It was probably the largest array of top U.S. businessmen ever to assemble in a developing country for an investment conference. The companies that they represented have combined annual sales of $36 billion, more than double Iran's gross national product...
