...Still clad in widow's weeds, Maria Martinez de Trujillo, 56, third wife of assassinated Dominican Dictator Rafael Leonidas Trujillo, stopped off at New York's Idlewild airport along with five grandchildren whom she was shepherding toward a Swiss school. Ignoring a crowd of 300 demonstrators who spat and shouted "Bloody murderers," the matronly authoress (Moral Meditations, Civic Meditations) attributed the current precarious peace in the Dominican Republic to "the affection the people bore my husband," but "categorically" rejected all talk of a continuation of the dynasty by the current commander of the republic's armed forces...
...Dave Brubeck and Count Basie on the ivories, Pete Fountain on the clarinet, Jack Brokensha on the vibes, and Cannonball Adderley, the meanest alto sax this side of Basin Street. The cats in the crowd yowled for all of them. But they also cheered for a bulky banjo player, clad in a cleric's cassock, who sat in the midst of a stripe-blazered combo and lined out Bill Bailey and Paddlin' Madeleine Home with minstrel zest and skill.

...protect the distinguished guests, the sleepy Bonn suburb of Bad Godesberg was turned into a virtual armed camp. Some 2,000 green-clad state police deployed around the white Redoute, a graceful 18th century mansion now a restaurant that the government occasionally takes over for major fetes. Italy's Premier Fanfani, The Netherlands' Premier de Quay, Belgium's Premier Lefevre, Luxembourg's Premier Werner came early. Last to arrive were De Gaulle and West Germany's Chancellor Adenauer; then the whole group got down to business: drafting a "European declaration" to serve as a guide...
Having identified myself, having been identified by my wife (reading TIME while she does all the work), and having been identified by my children (departing from tent not entirely clad), I am curious to know what disposition is intended of Artzybasheff's original drawing for this issue. If one of the many others also shown in the picture has not already staked his claim, will you consider mine...
