Normally, Palm Beach society stays only for the first act when visiting mummers put on a show at the local Royal Poinciana Playhouse. No point in wasting time at the theater with so many parties to attend. This time everyone stayed to the very end of a not-so-hot comedy called A Warm Body. After all, the star was one of their own: Actress and Post Cereals Heiress Dina Merrill, 41, who returned to her family's old wintering grounds to appear in the one-week run. Her mother, Mrs. Marjorie Merriweather Post, beamed proudly from...
...Neustadt is not yet sure what specific role the Institute Fellows--a group of young men leaving government service for private life with the expectation of returning to service--will play.

He returned to the U.S. to attend Williams College, class of 1935. Few students accumulated more honors: a Phi Beta Kappa key, the presidency of his class and of the senior honor society, the editorship of the student newspaper and the senior yearbook. He was also voted most likely to succeed. Journalism would be his career...
...workers at Jewish Memorial invited SDS to take one seat on the committee that negotiated with Fertel, SDS refused. "We don't want to get involved in the bureaucracy of it," Benenson said. But neither do they intend to desert unions they have succeeded in forming. They continue to attend union meetings at Jewish Memorial and help plan educational programs. SDS speaks at the meetings, and SDSers are convinced that it speaks with great influence. Benenson says, "They respect us because we fought with them from the beginning. Several SDSers at Jewish Memorial have as much influence in the meetings...
