...intermediate models. Gambling heavily on the intermediate Fairlane-which has done well, but partly at the expense of Falcon and Galaxie sales-Ford downgraded its medium-priced Mercury. In similar mood, Chrysler turned the Dodge into a Plymouth-priced Dart, and American Motors shortened its Ambassador. Meantime, to flesh out its own big and standard lines, G.M. showed that it was not above borrowing a good idea from a competitor by introducing the Chevy II-which is so like the Falcon that some Detroiters call it "Falcon III." Result was that G.M. offered autodom's most highly varied line...
...last count, 15 elephants were entered in tomorrow's sweepstakes. New stries yesterday included USC and Washington State. In all, it adds up to be hell of a lot elephant flesh...
TWENTY-ONE STORIES, by Graham Greene (245 pp.; Viking; $3.95). Any new book by Graham Greene, the British alchemist skilled at transmuting complex metaphysical problems of guilt and God into goose flesh, is a literary event. But Twenty-One Stories is also a tribute to publishing ingenuity.

His people were rarely recognizable I faces that are ambiguous"), and they often seemed blurred into their environment.

To some degree, a figure by Park mute and thickly sculpted, can b seen simply as one more of nature's forms...
...mesh goggles and noseguard, the head is vulnerable. Now each lad lofts a yard-long rapier with blunt point but sharp edges. At the umpire's "Los!" (go), they slash away-again, again, again-steel against steel for 15 minutes. The noise, astonishingly, is deafening. When steel slashes flesh, a doctor rushes in for repairs. Everyone happily retires to toast the prize: a fine Schmiss, or scar, the old Teutonic varsity letter. Not since the 1930s has student swordplay been so fashionable in Germany. About 40% of all male students at West Germany's 18 universities now belong...
