...helicopter. Chen flew to Gettysburg for a short talk with Dwight Eisenhower, hurried back to lunch with Vice President Johnson and talk with Speaker Sam Rayburn on Capitol Hill, entertained Kennedy at an eight-course Mandarin dinner. Then he flew off to Manhattan, where he made a tour of Chinatown and met with U.N. Secretary Dag Hammarskjold. Heading home this week, after stops in Chicago and San Francisco, Chen would take with him a briefcase full of unresolved diplomatic problems. But thanks to John Kennedy's firm statement that the U.S. view of Red China has not changed...

...earned a mighty supper. The top five restaurants are probably Locke-Ober's ($8.50 for lobster savannah; wait for your rich uncle to visit you), Joseph's, Red Coach Grille, Durgin Park (the roast beef, by all means), and Jimmy's Harborside (for seafood). Boston has a small Chinatown, about four blocks long, running off Washington St.; the House of Roy is one among several good restaurants in the area. For Italian food, it's Carmen's an as yet little known walk-up on Charles St., small, intimate, and candle-lighted, or Simeone's in Central Square, Cambridge...

"I slept out in the desert with the other desert rats. I'd hate...

...most unecstatic six-year marriage. Hedy did not contest Lee's suit or his testimony that she had often belted him, reviled him, squandered his money, and accused him of swiping her jewelry. Day after the divorce, Hedy, gazing raptly at one of her own oil paintings (title: Chinatown), told newsmen that the marriage had gone bad because she had been too much a "mother" to Lee. Already getting $2,500 monthly in temporary alimony, Amateur Artist Lamarr settled for roughly $500,000 of Lee's cash and oil holdings - making her more susceptible than ever to becoming...

...Manhattan last week, 17 Russians toured Chinatown and peered at Easter gowns in Fifth Avenue shopwindows. As cherry blossoms bloomed in Washington, 20 Japanese climbed out of their touring bus to snap pictures. Along Chicago's State Street wandered 72 curious Finnish businessmen. (Their hotel flew Finnish flags, provided Finnish maids for room service.) The Russians, the Japanese and the Finns are part of a new foreign invasion. They may not be seeing America first, but they are seeing it at last...
