...peace agreement we shall have to bear in mind the security problems of Israel. I had the dubious pleasure the morning of May 13, 1948, of having a Jordanian column trying to cut the country in half. I wouldn't like that to happen again. When President Sadat, in Ismailia, got a little annoyed with me and said, "Ezer, if this doesn't go through, I'll have you chased all over the world." I replied, "Please, Mr. President, the first time I started chasing you was 20 kilometers south of Tel Aviv...
...watermelon. I spent vacation in a mid-Atlantic city which shall be nameless (hint: its baseball team has managed to bomb chances to win the NL pennant for two years running), and look and feel like a mashed potato.

I have placed on reserve at Lamont and Hilles libraries all previously blown away lines, and will continue...
...such a contentious subject, TIME'S special report on socialism (March 13) drew a remarkably calm and reasoned set of responses from our readers, as reflected in the excerpts printed in this week's Letters column. In contrast, the cover story on the serene Cheryl Tiegs (March 6) brought a surge of emotion-charged letters-555 at last count. Most of our critics were angry and articulate women who found the story sexist. Predictably, the most enthusiastic supporters were males who felt that the cover was, as one put it, "a breath of fresh...
