When Hurricane Audrey roared up toward the Gulf Coast last summer (TIME, July 8), the only physician in the marshland town of Cameron (pop. 3,000), at the southwestern corner of Louisiana, was Cecil William Clark, 33, who ran a community medical center with a twelve-bed hospital. Dr. Clark was confident that his new brick house would ride out the storm, but he was worried about the frame clinic building (with only a brick veneer) and its eight bedfast patients. Leaving their three youngest children at home with a maid, Dr. Clark and his wife Sybil (a nurse-anesthetist...

Couple One is a somewhat surreal composition: an oversexed grease monkey (Cameron Mitchell) married to what he calls, when he's sore at her, "common Tennessee dirt" (Joanne Woodward). The girl looks like a chippy, and she can drink like a French drain when she's a mind to, but all she really wants is Social Acceptance and A Baby of Her Own. He, on the other hand, is strictly a smalltime sadist whose idea of fun is to kill Japs, and whose ambition is to be the local chief of police...

...Thomas. Gone now from radio is Winchell's clattering telegraph key and breathless bleat: too seldom heard is aging (79) H. V. Kaltenborn's clipped assurance. The news comes by short wave and on tape, the newsmen in snazzy ties and boutonnieres (ABC's popular John Cameron Swayze), and even in pairs (NBC's intelligent and informative duet, earnest Chet Huntley and wry David Brinkley). TV's journalists flit all over, like the technically muscle-flexing Wide, Wide World, or work in a simple star chamber, like Interviewer Mike Wallace. On too rare occasions...

...Experiment. In Cameron's experiment, each of 26 patients aged 17 to 54 (five men, 21 women) was dosed with chlorpromazine, which increased the sedative effect of barbiturates. By the end of the first week they were sleeping 20 to 22 hours a day. After getting solid food during this week, they were switched to semisolid. They got five units of insulin half an hour before each meal. With the onset of deep sleep, patients were wakened three times a day for meals and toileting. By the tenth day they were put on intensive electroshock treatment-usually one treatment...

Results of Cameron's experiment: of ten patients previously ill less than two years, all have been discharged, and none has had to be readmitted, though a few have had additional shock treatments as outpatients. Of 16 ill longer than two years, all but three have gone home (though two others had to be readmitted). Most have gone back to work or keeping house: some have even married and had children-getting shock treatments regularly during pregnancy...
