Gene Kelly plays D'Artagnan as an irrepressible, tongue-in-cheek Gascon who is knee-deep in gory swordplay. But his comrades Athos, Porthos and-Aramis are derring-doodlers. Athos (Van Heflin) is a self-pitying alcoholic, grieving over his betrayal by a buxom babe known around the French court as Lady de Winter (Lana Turner). Porthos is just a fortune hunter, and Aramis is ready to forswear the world...

...Kaleidoscope, left the New York Sun two years ago to turn his idea into a magazine. From such backers as Motor Heir Jack F. Chrysler, Tobacco Heir Angier Biddle Duke and Milwaukeean Joseph E. Uihlein Jr. (Schlitz beer), he got more than $500,000. But until he lured buxom Martha Stout away from the editorship of Hearst's Junior Bazaar, Collins had no magazine...

Last week, 100 members of Oxford's Labor Club decided to reenact the epic of Edwardian chivalry-even Socialists could be sentimental about the old days. They voted Anne Whates, a dark, buxom history student at Lady Margaret Hall, the girl for whom they would most willingly jump into the river. One day last week, dressed for her part in a straw boater and a Japanese sunshade, the new Zuleika was punted downstream in a chilling rain. Of the 100 voters, only nine braved the river, but three jumped with such abandon that Zuleika beckoned for an encore. (Said...
