The purpose of this research report is to determine if the United States should continue to support the Central Treaty Organization. In addressing this problem, CENTO'S origin, historical development, membership, accomplishments, problems, and prospects are examined to include the Communist threat to the region and United States support provided to CENTO and its regional members. This examination indicates that the alliance was formed primarily as a mutual security pact in response to the threat of Communist aggression. Current emphasis in CENTO affairs; however, appears directed more toward the mutual well-being and economic development of its regional members. Additionally, there is a lack of agreement concerning the Communist threat to the region and its members are disenchanted with the organization's effectiveness. (Modified author abstract).

In Proba the Prophet: The Christian Virgilian Cento of Faltonia Betitia Proba Sigrid Schottenius Cullhed offers an in-depth study and reappraisal of the Cento of Proba and its reception. Proba's poem belongs to the few extant Latin texts from Antiquity penned by a woman writer, and one of the oldest Christian Latin poems. Schottenius Cullhed surveys and challenges common preconceptions and biographical constructions of the poem's author and early readers, and examines their impact on interpretations and evaluations of the text. The author also develops and puts to use an alternative model for understanding the poem and convincingly shows how the Virgilian source texts form a complex net of internal and external biblical typologies within the Cento.
