COMPASSIONATE PASTOR
Date: 14 July 1984

The Rev. Emilio Castro, elected Thursday as general secretary of the World Council of Churches, was reared as one of nine children of working-class parents in Uruguay, where deep secular inroads made Christian faith very weak by Latin American standards. For a long time, the Government showed its disdain for Christian belief by spelling God with with a small ''g,'' Mr. Castro recalled in interview recently. Moreover, Mr. Castro later left the Roman Catholic Church of his upbringing to become a member of the Evangelical Methodist Church, a small group of Christians whose presence in Uruguay was scarcely known. Mr. Castro brings to his new post the lessons he has learned from many years of a vocation as pastor, teacher and missionary.

''If my career ended tomorrow, I would be satisfied,'' said Drew Pearson , the Dallas Cowboys' 32-year-old star receiver for whom tomorrow has apparently arrived.

After building a 2.4-mile circular tunnel on Long Island and starting work on an atom smasher that was to have used the tunnel, the Federal Department of Energy was told by a panel of physicists a year ago that the project really should be scrapped. Some $200 million had been spent on the work at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, but the physicists - a subcommittee of the department's High Energy Physics Advisory Panel - said the atom smasher would be obsolete by the time it was finished in 1987.

LOCAL TV WILL ELBOW THE NETWORKS AT THE CONVENTIONS

If there is any credo for those who consider the years between televised political conventions to be a Siberian winter bereft of spectacle, it's the one H. L. Mencken came up with 60 years ago yesterday: ''For there is something about a political convention,'' he wrote after the 103-ballot Democratic Convention in New York in 1924, ''that is as fascinating as a revival or a hanging. It is vulgar, it is ugly, it is stupid, it is tedious, it is hard upon both the higher cerebral centers and the gluteus maximus, and yet it is somehow charming. One sits through long sessions wishing heartily that all the delegates and alternates were dead and in hell - and then suddenly there comes a show so gaudy and hilarious, so melodramatic and obscene, so unimaginabaly exhilarating and preposterous that one lives a gorgeous year in an hour.''

RANGE OF PLUSES AND MINUSES FOUND IN POLL ON REP. FERRARO
Date: 14 July 1984

The instant public reaction to Representative Geraldine A. Ferraro as a Vice-Presidential candidate is mixed, with a wide range of minuses to accompany the pluses, according to a New York Times/CBS News Poll. The poll of 747 registered voters taken Thursday night, as Americans were first hearing of her selection as a running mate on the Democratic ticket by Walter F. Mondale, showed clearly negative reactions among the elderly, older and married men and Southerners. On the other hand, younger Americans, especially women, and undecided potential voters were positively affected by the choice. The poll thus illustrated how a surprise political move, which drew very little criticism and a great deal of praise from politicians Thursday, was evoking a different set of responses from people who were not professionally involved in the political process.
