...Everybody in the club used to want to tell me about his heart attack. Now I'm in the club, and I want to talk about mine." The speaker was not the usual coronary victim, but one of the U.S.'s leading experts on heart and artery diseases. Dr. Irvine H. Page (TIME cover, Oct. 31, 1955) has spent a working lifetime studying problems of the circulatory system as president of the American Heart Association in 1955 and research director of the Cleveland Clinic until 1966. Last week, at 66, he told fellow cardiologists at the association...
...along the Mexican border, he arrived the day the Japanese surrendered, and spent most of his time lecturing Mexican-American recruits on personal hygiene. After his discharge, he went to Yale, where he taught Spanish and toured with the debating team. Very large on campus (Torch Honor Society, Fence Club, Elizabethan Club, Skull and Bones), he became chairman of the Yale Daily News in his junior year and used its editorial column to disseminate his heterodox views...
...oldest advertising campaigns in the $14 billion liquor industry have lately taken a new direction. For 32 years, Hiram Walker & Sons' Canadian Club "adventure series" has shown men trying far-out sports in faraway places, giving up finally to enjoy their favorite highball. Last month for the first time, the adventure included a woman mountain climber, who paused halfway up a rock face to ask: "Do I really have to do this sort of thing to earn my Canadian Club?"

...Heublein, Inc., pioneered with a bottled-martini ad that included two cocktails on a table, a smiling young matron, and the phrase: "A wife's warmest welcome is well chilled." At first, like the Heublein lady, women could not be shown touching a glass or a bottle. Canadian Club's new approach indicates that women can share both the adventure and the whisky. The most recent Seagram gin ad shows a married couple holding martinis and bragging about "our secret" for making them well. Distillers try to keep the women wifely instead of sex-kittenish. "The girl," says...
...Cambridge, Woolf was one of the "Apostles"-a tiny, self-perpetuating club that once included Bertrand Russell. Later he was a charter member of the group known to the public as "Bloomsbury" and to itself as "the Memoir Club." They read their own memoirs to each other. It lasted for 36 years but of its members, only John Maynard Keynes seems to have had any great influence on the course of events. It was "the worst, full of passionate intensity," who, as Woolf sees it, overwhelmed the rational world of the Apostles and Bloomsbury. "Catholics, Communists, Rosicrucians and Adventists"-Woolf...
