Onto the polished, horseshoe-shaped table of the U.N. Security Council plopped a miniature arsenal-an automatic rifle and a light mortar, a helmet, a back pack, an opened parachute, a camouflage suit. Thus last week did British-backed Malaysia, after more than a year of harassment by Indonesia, launch a dramatic appeal...
Bright Future. Steinberg is also a vigorous fund raiser and public relations man, once promoted a concert by donning a fireman's helmet and red suspenders to tear around town on a fire engine, gaily clanging the fire bell.

An old-helmet romantic drama about occupied France, it has Simone Signoret as the chic Parisienne who is drawn into the Resistance movement by the irresistible U.S. flyer (Stuart Whitman). Together they make their way to a bittersweet parting at the Spanish border, along an underground route as familiar as the Champs-Elys...
