...that NBC was burdened with new ideas: there was the sound of western gunfire, the brassy clangor of variety shows, a hint of "adult" comedy. All the old standbys were there-Dinah Shore, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Perry Como. The newest TV face turned out to be one of the oldest in show business: Ed Wynn, 71.

For customer appeal its design will have "a hint" of this year's Hawk sports car in its styling.

...from Washington came a strong hint to fellow Texans on the eve of the state primary election: Speaker Sam Rayburn, the voice of authority to many a Texas Democrat, had cast his absentee ballot for Liberal Democrat Ralph W. Yarborough, incumbent junior U.S. Senator seeking reelection. Election day vote counting proved that Mr. Sam had lots of company. Results at week's end: 680,000 for Yarborough, 486,000 for William A.
