Though he was favored to win (TIME, April 28), Moderate Mo Udall found himself in trouble on election night when the returns gave Yuma County to Arch-conservative Matheson. Only by scoring heavily in Tucson's Pima County did Mo Udall go on to win by the squeaky margin of 51,318 to 49,263, which was close enough to encourage Republicans for the future.

...inventive sculpturing, opened up interiors, surrendered the long dark walls to light. And as a grace note, he had added the roof garden. These devices, which he imperiously declared to be the basis of a "fundamentally new esthetic," seem simple in retrospect-but then, so does the arch...

But shoe dealers who still have inventories of pointed shoes grumble that women are not ready for such radical changes. In the heady atmosphere of the arch-creator's Olympus, Vivier has no patience with such mundane complaints. Breathlessly awaiting his new-creations are Queens (England's two Elizabeths, Iran's Farah Diba), near queen (the Duchess of Windsor) and movie queens (Olivia de Havilland, Marlene Dietrich...
