...alone with a man before," she says severely a bit later in Peck's apartment, "even with my dress on," and her trusting innocence becomes a sure guarantee of safety. Audrey Hepburn's princess seems never to forget her exalted station, even when she is gulping an ice cream cone, getting her hair cut or whamming a cop over the head with a guitar in a nightclub dustup. Yet to scenes where she is playing the princess proper, she brings a wistfulness that seems completely unposed. She can be infinitely appealing with her hair snarled and her dress...
Eyes Like Almonds. Jamini Roy is as different from most of his fellow Indian artists as curry from ice cream. Most young Indians who go to Europe to study art turn out either politely classic or dutifully modern work.

While cameras whirred, Brigadier General Ralph Osborne, commanding officer of Freedom Village, made an announcement. "I want to take this occasion to welcome the greatest VIP, the most distinguished guest...
...scores from half a dozen towns, but were helpless. Three workers and one fireman perished* and 40 others were injured. Solvents, cleaning compounds, acids and gases burst into angry, hungry flames that were whipped by a brisk west wind. Steel columns twisted and dipped like trees bowed by an ice storm. It was the worst fire in the history of Detroit, the worst in the U.S. for any single plant.' G.M.'s estimated loss: $70 million in plant, tools and other equipment. Livonia was insured for only $28 million...
