...Peepers. Goldfine's pressagents got the week off to the wildest of Marx Brothers starts. In charge was one Jack Lotto, modestly describing himself as "a former ace reporter for the I.N.S.," who set up shop in a three-room Sheraton-Carlton press headquarters. The headquarters featured free whisky and "Press Receptionist" Bea Duprey, a toothsome Boston model who seemed mostly interested in making sure reporters got her measurements right (35-22-35).

...Appointed Florida's moderately conservative former (1929-33) Governor Doyle Elam Carlton, 70, to the new Civil Rights Commission to fill the vacancy left by retired Supreme Court Justice Stanley Reed (TIME, Dec. 16). Says Democrat Carlton, who keeps his sentiments on segregation largely to himself: "I will be sitting, in effect, as a judge and jury, and I want to pass honestly and fairly on every matter." Justice Reed's commission chairmanship went to Vice Chairman John A. Hannah, 55, president of Michigan State University...
