Near week's end Producer Susskind withdrew plans for his TV Ben Hur. Still in the works for CBS's U.S. Steel Hour: a TV play about the life of Sigmund Freud, anticipating a planned movie.

...world to hold a convention are the followers of famed Analytical Psychologist Carl Gustav Jung (TIME, Feb. 14, 1955). Mostly professed introverts, they look disapprovingly on the modern world's passion for extraversion, "togetherness" and "other-directedness."

...relic of the Boer War, where he may or may not have been the hero of an absurd cavalry charge, now a court official ("standing about at Buck House"), who likes to play Gounod's Ave Maria on a cello and has late in life taken up with Freud, Jung and Adler. C| Lord Warminster, from a decayed family who "probably made their money out of the Black Death" (1348-49); he is currently spending the last of the Black Death bonanza in sponsoring left-wing causes, and is suspected of hoping that when his estate is turned into...
