...princess in a world desperately looking for diversion from inflation, devaluation, unemployment, revolution, coups, wars and death." European Correspondent William Rademaekers' assessment of Princess Caroline of Monaco's special appeal applies more or less equally to Margaux Hemingway and the ten other young women chosen by TIME'S bureaus round the world as the collective subject of this week's cover story. For varying reasons-looks, talent, what Margaux would describe as the "snappin' " zest for life that she and Deborah Raffin have brought to modeling-all have arrived on the scene with their...
This assignment also provided diversion for some of TIME'S own snappin' women in New York: Gina Mallet, who wrote the story, Martha Duffy, who edited it, and Amanda MacIntosh, who researched it. At one point the three joined Ms. Hemingway in a Manhattan restaurant; they were halfway through lunch (cold lobster, white wine) before they could really understand her lickety-split, California-hip patois, but the interview turned out "okeydoke artichoke," as Margaux would say. Mallet also talked with Model Beverly Johnson and interviewed Millionette Nicky Lane in her Visconti-decadent drawing room on Manhattan...
Once there was a young girl called Margaux Hemingway, who had a pretty face and lived in Ketchum, Idaho.

Last week, however, life began looking...
...Invitational Arm-Wrestling Tourney held last week in Manhattan. While bartenders boosted the spirits of waiting contestants, Actor Peter Boyle, Singer Mac Davis, ex-Housewife Pat Loud and nine others soon joined Tuck in the loser's circle. The women's division championship went to Model Margaux Hemingway, whose vigorous gum-chewing may have distracted her opponents. Hemingway's fiance, Hamburger King Errol Wetson, won the men's title. After the competition, he suggested that Hemingway's training program may have given her an edge. Revealed Wetson: "Margaux beats me every night...
That kind of talk never fooled her fans, who included Picasso, Matisse and Hemingway ("I was always popular because I was earning all the money," she recalled). Baker's art had more to it than just nudity, of course. It was the way she seemed to pass her songs from person to person in the audience, and the way the slinky soprano voice wooed the ears as much as the lithe body invited the eyes. By 1927 she had received an estimated 40,000 love letters and 1,192 proposals of marriage, one from a rajah who offered...
