Though her singing voice is fine, shy Carol Cole, 20, daughter of the late Nat King Cole, decided she would rather act, began her movie career as a waitress named Pussycat who douses Dean Martin with a drink in something called The Silencers. With that little ceremony finished, Carol smiled as gracefully as the King used to and went off to be crowned Princess October of Hollywood-a distinction cooked up by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to honor a girl every month for "character and personality...
...Daniels was shot, I turned to leave. I did not want to play hero. Another shot was fired, and I was struck . . . in my spine." The priest said that neither he nor Daniels was armed-"The only thing I had in my hand was a dime," for a soft drink...

Only now, however, is desalinization being attempted on a large scale...

Still another method involves freezing. As a youth in Siberia, Alexander Zarchin, an Israeli engineer, became fascinated by the fact that he could drink melted water from the ice of salty seas. In freezing, he learned, the ice crystals form separately from the brine, then melt down as fresh water. One important advantage of this kind of desalinization is that it takes less power to freeze than to heat. A prototype plant, developed by Zarchin...
