...from kindergarten this year, is growing up; the President, who used to call her "Buttons," now addresses her by her real name. In Washington she often drops in at the President's office and sits in one of the big black wooden chairs beside his desk-just to chat. In Palm Beach she strides hand in hand with her father on shopping sprees along Worth Avenue, and aboard the Honey Fitz she likes to sit with feet dangling over the side and swap stories with the crew...
...from his twelve-day "goodwill journey" to Europe, the first official visit ever made by a Mexican President. On a five-nation swing "in the cause of peace," López Mateos adroitly balanced cordial visits to Yugoslavia and Poland with an abrazo for De Gaulle and a nice chat with old friends Prince Bernhard and Princess Irene of The Netherlands. West Berlin was on the agenda too, and there Mexico's "independent" foreign policy made sightseeing a drag. López Mateos had no time for Checkpoint Charlie, the Wall, or the memorial to 18-year-old Peter...

Rhode Island's John Pastore, another Democrat, cracked: "It will be hot anyway." Republican committee members, it was rumored, planned to hold F.D.R. Jr.'s feet to the fire in hearings on his appointment as Under Secretary of Commerce...
...President arose because of his well-documented reputation as a binge drinker who at times embarrassed his nation. At first, occasional two-or three-day toots drew little attention. Then during his state visit to the U.S. last year, Arosemena managed to show up wobbly at a private chat with President Kennedy. Some months later, when Chile's dignified, austere President Jorge Alessandri visited Ecuador, Arosemena nearly collapsed as he tried to give his guest the traditional abrazo at the airport, then insisted on conducting the brass band. At cocktails, Arosemena saw that Alessandri's champagne glass stood...
