Honor Beclouded. Then, with an august frown, the Senate turned to deal with Francis Case, who by devious but predictable senatorial reasoning was thought to have beclouded the honor of the entire body. Georgia's Senator Walter George was named to head the special committee investigating the Case contribution. Meek Francis Case (he was so overwhelmed by his notoriety that at one time newsmen found him hiding, face half-shielded, in a telephone booth) was the first witness...
...take off for a whole weekend. The so-called unfeminine aspects of Radcliffe girls--green book bags and Knee socks, for instance--are actually a defense mechanism against the strain of looking beautiful all the time for the Harvardman. Since both the Cambridge citizenry and the 'Cliffe administration frown on Bermuda shorts in class, girls achieve the same effect by neglecting to comb their haid or to put on lipstick.

...deep frown is visible not far behind the smile. Although many Western newsmen have been granted temporary visas to Moscow in the last two months (TIME, July 4), at least half a dozen recent requests for visas have not been acted upon. Last week Pravda slipped into its familiar theme song that the "common people" of the West want peace, but their wishes are often frustrated by the "ruling circles." And London's Communist Daily Worker made a shocking revelation: "Children on farms in the U.S. customarily work very hard, and some boys and girls...
