WHEN the curtain first went up on the drama of Czechoslovakia, TIME'S cover story (April 5) on Alexander Dubček observed that, more than any other man, he had "planned, pleaded for and nurtured the sweeping changes that promise to alter the temper and quality of Czechoslovak life, and perhaps the nature of Communism in the rest of Eastern Europe as well." As that drama began to climax with a confrontation between Dubček and a phalanx of irritated Russian leaders, TIME'S correspondents concerned themselves last week not only with the central characters...
TIME'S Vienna Bureau Chief Peter Forbath, who reported for the earlier cover and is a student of Czechoslovak character and politics, joined up with a massive Russian army convoy of heavy vehicles, field pieces and armored personnel carriers moving down the narrow roads in the foothills of the High Tatra Mountains.

While three surgeons removed and cooled the liver to retard deterioration, Dr. Francis D. Moore (TIME cover, May 3, 1963) and his Brigham team prepared Tommy Gorence to receive it. It was, says Moore, "a very arduous job because of the whopping size of Tommy's liver." Just to get at it entailed making three heroic incisions, two horizontal and one vertical. This was typical...
