Before he drove off to see the U.S. World Trade Fair at Manhattan's Coliseum near by, Ike bade goodbye to Mrs. V. Beaumont Allen, Manhattan philanthropist, who donated $3,000,000 for Lincoln Center's Repertory Theater, and who, like the President, had suffered a coronary attack. Nobody heard exactly what Ike told her, but apparently it had something to do with the kind of medical care he got during his illness. A moment later she dashed over to the President's physician, Major General Howard Snyder, 78, and bussed him heartily. Shouted Ike gaily: "Tell...
...budget last week, Mattei was still cock of the walk, but minus a few tail feathers. Critics have often suggested a concealed ownership of the heavily subsidized Milan daily // Giorno (circ. 150,000), which has consistently backed Mattei's causes and opposed his detractors, followed a left-of-center line, and often been hostile to actions of Premier Antonio Segni's regime. The government consistently denied that taxpayers' money was backing // Giorno, Last week Mario Ferrari-Aggradi, head of the government ministry that controls state properties, stunned Senators by candidly acknowledging that ΙΙ Giorno does indeed...
...bristling little dictatorship of Generalissimo Trujillo. The Dominicans brag that they have 25,000 men under arms, an air force of 50 jets, and a navy of 19 frigate-destroyer escort-type vessels, all highly efficient. The troops looked neat and tough.

These are the draftees, and their D.I.s strut and chant like U.S. marines, all very sharp. On the air route from the east, there is a brand-new jet base...
Checking out of Manhattan's Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center after a lung-cancer operation (TIME, May n), TV-Radio Entertainer Arthur Godfrey, 55, met the press in the most harrowing interview of his life. Pale and shaky, he first tried to carry it off bravely: "Just like I told you when I came in, I feel fine." Though he soon gave way to tears, he still managed to keep his old red head in describing his bout with the malignant growth in his chest. "That damnable" tumor had even adhered to the aorta, great artery from the heart. Sobbing...
Last week the institute, part of the N.Y.U.-Bellevue Medical Center, dedicated the Enid A. Haupt Children's Garden-promptly dubbed "the Garden of Enid" by Dr. Rusk's staff. Around a central greenhouse are plots to be developed by patients of all conditions and sizes. (Though the garden was planned for children, adult patients looked on so wistfully that they will get to use it too.) In the greenhouse, in addition to such decorative come-ons as parrots, a cage of finches and an aquarium, is a wading pool so designed that even children in wheelchairs...
