...Muskies and their two children, Stephen, 5½, and Ellen, 3½, live in a $10,500 Cape Cod cottage in a new section of Waterville. Like most of his neighbors, Ed is a do-it-yourself repairman. Last year, in the midst of some intensive carpentry in his attic, he fell down the stairs, crushed a vertebra. At 40 the governor-elect is a slender, slightly stooped reed standing 6 ft. 4 in.

...York and much of New England were merely sideswiped, left drenched and unhurt as the big wind fumed up the coast. Edna ultimately suffered the fate of many girls who can't make up their minds: she wound up with a split personality. Over Cape Cod she divided into halves. She made her final schizophrenic landfall over Maine and shrieked into Canada's Maritime Provinces and New foundland. Casualties: 18 dead; damages: an estimated $50 million.

Eisenhower, who has until July 27 to make a decision, last week gave a clue to his intentions. He overruled a Tariff Commission recommendation that he raise the tariff and set quotas on groundfish fillets (cod, flounder, etc.), now being used in the fast-growing new product, fish sticks (TIME, May 17). Said Eisenhower: higher tariffs and quotas "would hamper and limit the development of the market." But if Ike overrules the commission on watches, the Administration may decide to give the watchmakers more defense orders to make up for their lost watch business...
Fish Fry. Frozen sticks of bottom fish (cod, halibut, etc.), dipped in batter and ready for quick cooking, are being put on the market by Seattle's San Juan Fishing & Packing Co. Such uncooked "Fish Stix" are the newest entry in the packers' race to tap the fast-growing fish-stick market. Frozen fish sticks, already cooked, are already being turned out by packers from the Northwest to New England, are selling at the rate of 7,262,000 Ibs. (more than $4,000,000 worth) a year...
