In Brazil, where From Russia broke all Rio and Sao Paulo records, one unemployed TV actor had only to change his name to Jaime Bonde to be swamped with offers.

...most engaging new celebrity in Washington last week was a 320-year-old boy dressed in a grey-brown tunic and a plumed velvet hat. In a chastely simple lobby of the National Gallery of Art, where the Mona Lisa hung last year on its visit to the U.S., Rembrandt's delicate 251 inch by 22 inch portrait of his son Titus was unveiled for a six-week-long stay before moving on to its permanent home in the new Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Any time Cocky manages two jumps forward, he is forced to go three jumps or more backward. Arbitrary? Unreasonable? One understands-the game is hopelessly rigged...
...Negro nurse back in Weatherford, who had seen her at the Music Hall in Annie Get Your Gun in 1947. At that performance, Billie had sat in a folding chair in the side balcony of a then segregated house. This time she was sitting proudly in black dress, matching hat, and pearls, seventh-row center...
