...autocrat, never left home when a conspiracy needed routing out. The inference was that, though Khrushchev is No. 1, "others" were powerful enough to do the dirty work, and did not have to clear everything with Khrushchev. As Khrushchev strode confidently through Communist Czechoslovakia, he was followed by tanned, blond, smiling State Security Boss Ivan Serov, watchdog of the Communist state and liquidator of millions. Many of Nikita's more reckless, vodka-primed speeches to the Czechs were drastically edited by other hands before being passed out to the press: Did Stalin let someone else, without...
...sudden, the crowd remembered that Mayer was the young man who had the Open in his hands in 1954 at Baltusrol, then threw it away and finished third, behind Furgol and Littler. "He never wins anything but money," said a spectator, recalling all the times the handsome blond had finished high up and failed to win. Chances seemed good that he would blow it again. This week in the play-off it was Middlecoff who came apart. He splashed shots all over the course. Remarkably calm in the oppressive heat, Mayer played steady, close-to-par golf.

Attention centered first on Dr. Stig Akerfeldt, a boyish (27), blond biochemist from Stockholm's famed Nobel Institute, who had reported that when a certain chemical is added to a sample of blood serum, it will turn a bright red if the subject has schizophrenia or other severe mental illness.

There, playing a lively jazz piano, was 25-year-old Robin Douglas-Home. Tall, blond and thinly handsome, Robin was no ordinary pianist. He was nephew of the Earl of Home, who is currently the Tory leader in the House of Lords. Robin is a close friend of that young cutup, the Duke of Kent, and a frequent escort of his sister Princess Alexandra. After five years as an officer in the Seaforth Highlanders...
...made anywhere-far rougher than the criticism from Roman Catholics three weeks ago (TIME, May 6). With well-bred disdain, the Century regarded Billy as a sinister and strange "new junction of Madison Avenue and the Bible Belt . . . Radio and television will be carrying the voice and image of blond sincerity into homes long conditioned to recognize packaged virtue and desperate now for almost any kind of sincerity. It simply cannot fail. With trainloads of well-saved out-of-town supporters coming from as far away as Texas, the campaign will obviously be railroaded to success...
