...become "one of the enemy." To a Social Democratic Party congress in Hannover, Brandt said: "It is true. I have been called Willy Brandt for 'only' the past 28 years." He had adopted the name at 19, when he fled his native town of Lübeck to work with the anti-Nazi underground in Norway. When he returned to Germany in 1945, "little more than the memory of a not entirely easy childhood bound me to the name of my birth and the name of my then unmarried mother." He continued to call himself Willy Brandt because...

Hancock '61--with laudable work in each of its four roles by Mary Graydon, Kathryn Humphreys '60, Joel Crothers '62, and Peter G. Gesell '61. There followed, under John C. Beck '60, an adequate if unexciting traversal of Giraudoux's Tiger at the Gates at Pi Eta.

...body to repair the damage. Italian surgeons pioneered with rerouting one or two small arteries from the upper chest to the heart wall. The operation is relatively minor and safe, but most U.S. cardiologists doubt that it does much good, if any. Cleveland's Dr. Claude S. Beck (TIME, March 25, 1957) and Manhattan's Dr. Samuel Thompson (TIME, Nov. 13, 1950) relied on a different principle. If tissues in and around the heart are irritated, they develop an increased blood supply. So these surgeons opened the heart sac and supplied an irritant by dusting with talc...
