...Centaur, John Keats: The Making of a Poet and Selected Poems, respectively; Arizona Democrat Carl Hayden, 86, now the Senator with the longest record of service in the entire history of the Senate, having passed the longevity total of the late Wyoming Republican Francis Warren; and U.S. Ambassador Fulton Freeman, 48, given the Cruz de Boyaca-Colombia's highest award, previously reserved only for heads of state and never before bestowed on a North American-by President Guillermo Valencia, who said of Freeman, soon to move to Mexico: "The most extraordinary ambassador Colombia has ever...
...things change in an election year -and the Johnson Administration, with Agriculture Secretary Orville Freeman's support, put immense pressure upon Senate Democrats to pass the new farm bill, particularly the wheat part. And so the Senate last week wheezed its approval of a two-year $1 billion wheatand-cotton subsidy bill. It was, of course, just another of those legislative thingamajigs that have for decades contributed so much to the continuing U.S. farm scandal...
...family of four got a table in the U.N. Delegates' Dining Room-and here came the waitress, all snarls, and spilled soup. Crash! Down slammed the food. Zip!

Suddenly, she says, she rediscovered "the particular human being, the singular gesture, the individual-not the hero." She started watching people, even hiring models to avoid painting cliche anatomy, sketching particular faces and gestures that, says she, "somehow find their way" into her pictures. But her figures...
...Mexico City, Freeman has a tough act to follow. Under able former Ambassador Thomas C. Mann, who recently moved up to Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs (TIME cover, Jan. 31), Mexican-U.S. relations reached a rare high point. The nagging, century-old Chamizal border dispute on the Rio Grande at El Paso, Texas, was amicably settled last year, and the Kennedy visit in 1962 brought vivas and warm abrazos all around. But the U.S. would still like to see a firmer stand by Mexico against Castro's Cuba...
