...four talent coordinators, and supervised by the star-is the selection of the Tonight guests. The pay is only $320, but the pool is limitless, explains Tony Randall, because the show "is plugsville." Bob Hope, for example, came on recently, chatted a bit, and then showed a 21-minute clip from his latest film, Eight on the Lam. At Tonight's going commercial rates, that air time would have cost United Artists $40,000. The second attraction to the stars, says Actress Susan Oliver, is that "when you play a part onstage or in a film...
...post-abstract expressionist era of the '60s, modern art has been racing ahead at a frantic clip that is a challenge to its chroniclers. In recent years the editors have taken the readers through the worlds of pop and op (a TIME coinage, by the way) and on to kinetic and minimal. This week it's luminal. In a wide-ranging story, the Art section surveys the work of a new group of practitioners who "paint" in light. As usual in TIME, the story is supported by a portfolio of color illustrations...
...reliable than their rockets and mortars is the Viet Cong's trusty, Russian-made AK-47, a stubby automatic assault rifle that is more rugged and dependable than the Americans' skittish M-16 rifle.

It is so efficient that some individual U.S. soldiers have taken captured AK-47s for their own use in battle, relying on captured arms caches to keep themselves in ammunition...
...huddle around his piano bar, treats each individually with an appropriate number drawn from a repertory of 2,000 songs. "I've always had a feeling for the other side of the piano," he says. Looking like a walrus in repose, he plays for three hours at a clip, occasionally breaks out his "polished Louis Armstrong voice." He claims that his version of Canadian Sunset is great for loosening up his upper arms and shoulders...
...concessions in the huge Sarir field. To exploit its holding, BP Bunker Hunt has built a capacious crude-oil pipeline leading from its rigs in the Sarir to Marsa Hariga. Running 320 miles, the 34-in., multimillion-dollar line could ultimately carry almost 1,000,000 bbl. at a clip. It is buried six feet beneath the dunes in order to keep the oil liquid during the chill desert nights. The pipeline runs past a British airbase- and deliberately close to the Egyptian border. If necessary, British soldiers will thus be better able to guard against sabotage...
