...churches, Belluschi (a Roman Catholic who has worked as well for Lutherans, Episcopalians and Jews) is responsible for the inclusion of such traditional equipment as candlesticks and crucifixes, calls in such modernists as Sculptor Richard Lippold and Painter Gyorgy Kepes to help. He demands that artists use materials both as contemporary as stainless steel and as old as cathedral glass, to give the church traditional richness and warmth of color. In searching for the most modern solution, he has lately returned to the earliest Christian prototypes: Portsmouth Priory's Church of St. Gregory the Great repeats in its octagonal...

They include oldtimers and almost-old-timers (Nelson Eddy, Lena Home, currently Dick Haymes and Fran Jeffries) as well as occasional newcomers; recently the room sported the Kim Sisters-three Koreans who sing American and yodel, too. The Maisonette at the St. Regis has a small circle of chanteuses who supposedly appeal to society-Julie Wilson, Vicky Autier et al. The Cotillion Room at the Pierre does abridged versions...
