...Portuguese doubtless were relieved that the attack on the Pope at Fátima came not from one of their own but from a visiting Spaniard, Juan Fernández y Krohn, 32. Police investigators soon confirmed that Fernández was, as he had appeared to be, a priest-but an archconservative one. He was ordained at the seminary of Ecône in Switzerland, the traditionalist bastion of French Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, a diehard opponent of the liberalizing reforms of the Second Vatican Council (1962-65), especially its modernization of the 16th century Latin Mass.

More will doubtless be attracted by an unusual spring gift catalogue that, in the style of Neiman-Marcus, offers such one-of-a-kind items as an endowed faculty chair (at a cost of $1 million).

Even so, it is questionable whether Haig should have committed himself to an all-consuming mission that prevented him from watching other festering...
...mainly bad reports as the recession grew worse, the March inflation figures proved that the country's current economic travails are yielding some unappreciated benefits. The success of the anti-inflation portion of Reaganomics appears to leave only high interest rates blocking a substantial recovery. That will doubtless increase the White House's resolve to stick with its current policy...
