...Springs. She doesn't play the tables at Vegas or pick up a cue in the billiard room of the Beverly Hills Daisy; where Frank Sinatra bides his time, she abides not. If she isn't at home, she is likely to be found with her four-year-old daughter at Hamburger Hamlet or at the Los Angeles Zoo or at a local art gallery. Her night on the town is the Bolshoi or a concert at the Hollywood Bowl...
...McGeath, a clerk in Dallas' big new Sanger-Harris department store, was trimming a display Christmas tree one afternoon when she felt a tug on her skirt. "Lady," said a four-year-old boy, his tiny face knotted with perplexity, "Lady, it's not even Halloween yet." It wasn't, either.

Throughout a hard, costly campaign, he has narrowed the gap and, toward campaign's end, was hammering at Democrat Frank O'Connor's "demagogy," lack of courage, foresight and "size.'" New York City Council President O'Connor, who is conspicuously short of personal dynamism, effective organization and cash, accused Rockefeller of a "shabby attempt to mislead the people" and exhumed a four-year-old scandal in the state administration. Franklin...
...newcomer to this country, I am struck by too many unhappy similarities in attitude between white South Africans and Americans. I hope that with the aid of enlightened governmental legislation within the next generation, I shall never again hear statements similar to the one made by a four-year-old neighborhood child to the effect that she is glad not to be colored because "Negroes aren't people."
