...A.M.A. Journal of a case at Manhattan's Roosevelt Hospital, Drs. Richard L. Golden and Charles A. Bertrand try to avoid the technical designation of "total anomalous pulmonary venous connection." They call the condition simply "snowman heart." Who coined the term is unclear, but it is especially apt. In the X ray, the enlarged, misshapen heart casts a distinctive white shadow shaped like a snowman...
Still pursuing a freewheeling life, Herridge is apt to turn up at parties with two or three dates; in his office he keeps photographs-even an oil portrait-of assorted musky ladies of close acquaintance.

His followers sell orange-colored Lumumba shirts and party cards to raise money; any black man caught in Stanleyville without his party card was apt to get a beating from Lumumba's toughs. Opposing fragmentation of the huge colony, Lumumba preaches national unity under a strong central government, but his kind of unity strikes fear in the hearts of many whites. In French, which the Belgains understand, his sleek loudspeaker-equiped cars last week made...
