...novelty and a rarity. The actor emerged as Bird Lahr and Aristophanes authored a brand-new play: The Bert. After all, this is the only process by which drama survives through the ages. Its apparently dead body has to be revived by a great actor's live heart...
...stern-faced man in a dark business suit who spoke through thin lips with a noticeable Afrikaans accent. He offered no tinseled presents, but the hope that his kind of surgical pioneering may eventually bring the vastly more valuable gift of renewed and prolonged life to many victims of heart disease. He was Dr. Christiaan Neethling Barnard (TIME cover, Dec. 15), who flew to the U.S. from Cape Town to Face the Nation on CBS, appeared on Today, filmed a future episode for The 21st Century, and began this week with a second full hour for NBC.

The difference is that knowledgeable football buffs have now found a whole new pantheon of heroes in the heart of the defense: the front four linemen, the immense tackles and ends who fight their battles in what the pros call "the Pit." It is an arena that measures only about eight yards by two yards. But it is the place, as ex-Halfback Frank Gifford says, "where...
