...perhaps one of every three films - and I mean not just the Busby Berkeley and Astaire-Rogers musicals, but westerns, weepies, Marx Brothers farces - had original songs. In the 40s and 50s it had Kelly and his MGM team, and that was more than enough; that was heaven. Even in the 60s, when the genre was long past its vital prime, yet the industry keep producing bantamweight musical series starring Doris Day, Elvis Presley, Frankie and Annette.

A number of American Jewish organizations have joined the fray, some of which have urged the U.S. government to cut Israel’s foreign aid. San Francisco-based A Jewish Voice for Peace is conducting a petition drive, asserting that “as Americans, we do not want our foreign aid dollars used to deprive Palestinians of justice and human rights. As Jews, although we support a democratic Israel, we must criticize its security policies that have the effect...
...Scotto, a Russian literature lecturer, teaches the classes on campus. “I don’t see any way how an exchange of pleasure is something to be condemned,” she told the Union-News in Springfield. Scotto supported herself through exotic dancing while attending Berkeley and still dances semi-professionally, though she has made no plans to lecture at Harvard due to the inflexibility of the Core...
