...King. Many of his listeners in multilingual India, though they cheered and clapped mightily, could understand scarcely a word that he said in English or Hindi. Fastidiously avoiding all the local grass-roots issues for which he has no taste-the caste problem, anti-cow slaughter, communalism, astrology-Nehru explained the Kashmir issue and India's foreign policy to audience after audience of backwoods illiterates.

One minute she kicks her husband (Richard Conte) out of bed; the next she asks him with a pathetic whine why he always wants to sleep alone. "Look at me," she wails. "I'm a big fat cow." But she is furious when her husband does not contradict her. She is even madder when he chats at the fence with the girl next door. "You're carrying on with that-bffrllggrhaphut!" The next minute, overwhelmed by bacteriophobia, she starts scrubbing the kitchen floor for the fourth time that...

...self-effacingly to leave the court, Reed was not even sure that he rated as the leading citizen of his own native Maysville, Ky. (pop. 8,000). That honor rightly belonged, he once said, to Maysville's Rosemary Clooney. "There used to be a street in town called Cow Lane and they changed it to Rosemary Lane.
