...autrforing their four-day-a-week column for the New York Herald Tribune Syndicate, Joseph and Stewart Alsop decided to try a "new and frankly experimental" division of effort. While Family Man Stewart, 43, stayed home in Washington to file two columns a week from Capitol Hill, Bachelor Joe, 46, decided to give readers first-hand coverage of events in Europe and the Middle East. Last week, after six months of steady travel in which he broke the news (after an interview with Khrushchev) of the Soviet Union's sweeping industrial reorganization, covered the Jordan crisis, traced the growing...
Last week the A.M.A. gave its Distinguished Service Award (gold medal plus citation) to Dr. Tom Douglas Spies (rhymes with fees), an eccentric bachelor who, at 55, has no home, but lives out of a suitcase in a hotel wherever he happens to be working. About eight months of the year this is Birmingham; for two months it may be Havana or San Juan; the rest of the time it is Chicago, where Spies heads Northwestern University's department of nutrition and metabolism. Since his school days, pellagra has been almost completely banished from the U.S. And, for this...
...told for fair. "Gambling, widespread and important, is back at the old stands in Jefferson Parish!" cried the front page of the New Orleans States. "It is spreading like an epidemic."

(TIME, June...

The house, which cost an estimated $40,000 to build, is in effect a single room composed of "freestanding circles in a rectangle," with the kitchen and bath the most prominent circles set in the rectangle of the living area. Blue translucent-glass panels let in light and cut the glare; the interior is furnished with pale Japanese silks, gold-veined black Belgian marble, Finnish lamps, lacquered cane and teak chairs, aquamarine Puerto Rican tile, East Indian alabaster, a walnut-paneled...
Reach for the Sky, the most popular picture (gross: over $1,500,000) shown in England during 1956, is based on Paul Brickhill's lively biography (TIME, Aug. 2, 1954), and has Kenneth More-the bachelor in Genevieve-in the title role. Actor More, who is probably the world's ablest portrayer of damn-the-torpedoes extraversion, gives a cracking good imitation of a fighting nature that thrived in adversity. Yet the show, more or less, is More-or less. The script suffers from a kind of paraplegia of the narrative instinct, and the fly-stuff never gets...
