TIME, basically, is a word magazine, but we also take pride in our pictures, most particularly our cover paintings-such as Robert Vickrey's portrait of Senator William Fulbright on this week's cover. Now look beyond the Senator's right ear. The scrollwork of flowers and birds that decorates the wall panel by the door of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee room is the creation of still another artist whom millions of Americans know by style, if not always by name...
...required for cloture on a filibuster, and Republicans in both houses have prepared proposals that would cancel the Supreme Court's order to reapportion state legislatures on the basis of population only. Foreign aid will be a battle again. In the Senate, two top Democrats-Arkansas' William Fulbright, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, and Majority Leader Mansfield-are agitating to have the bill split up instead of coming in "one big conglomerate mass." Their aim is to give Congress a chance to vote separately on various types of aid-a method that the White House strongly opposes...

Vice President-elect Hubert Humphrey was in San Juan, along with Senator William Fulbright, Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee.

Stepping down at last was Luis Muñoz Marin, 66, the island commonwealth's leader for the past 16 years. Into the Governor's La Fortaleza palace went Roberto Sánchez Vilella, 51, Muñoz' able Secretary of State (Vice Governor) and hand-picked successor who has worked faithfully for el maestro since...
...ELIAS FRIEDENSOHN, 40, like many other artists today, shifts easily between painting and sculpture. His delicate pencil drawings and scruffy oils, which emphasize "the masks people wear which stand in the way of communication," have won him Fulbright and Guggenheim fellowships. His Pyramus & Thisbe is a dial-version of Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream, lovers, who can communicate only through a hole in a wall. In the painted epoxy sculpture, Thisbe appears only as an ear modeled inside the back door of the pay phone...
