Travel or not travel in American life and humor

The piece humorously contrasts foreign travel with domestic spending habits, noting varied preferences like cars, clubs, farms, or summer homes. It recalls Riley and his travel anecdotes, riffs on soybeans and Mira-Tex in industry chatter, and mentions Seagram's Seven Crown as a top liquor brand amid playful lines about Americans and travel.

Seven Arts Notes and Driftwood Song Recall

A reminiscence on Wonders of the World and Seven Sutherland Sisters, Bollingen Prize winner James Merrill, and Richhard Everhart as Poetry Society of America honorary president after Robert Frost's death.
