Cunning Bun. Around 10:30 the Nixons quietly left. Their takeoff was followed by the departure of stiff, proper Society Matron Mrs. Merriweather Post, hair in cunning bun, dignity coolly intact. Hardly anyone cared; the band blasted out with Hold That Tiger, and for hours that tiger was really loose; jitterbugging, rock 'n' rolling, the crowd poured it on. At length, in the early hours of the morning, the party and the liquor began to subside. Tired, rumpled and glassy-eyed, the guests found their way to the door. Last to leave: Senator Russ Long, his face glowing...
STEEL UNION REBELS rolled up surprisingly high vote in move to unseat President Dave McDonald. Preliminary count gave Insurgent Leader Don Rarick (TIME, Dec. 10) more than one-third of the ballots, which he interprets as a mandate to keep the anti-McDonald bloc intact and try again for election in 1961.

Even while Fulbright and his Senate friends were plucking the political fiddle strings, the House of Representatives was moving swiftly-and with point.

Hard to read, harder to act, impossible to stage with its own wild flavor intact because of obvious censorship obstacles, "Nighttown" is bound to keep playgoers consulting not only programs but probably interpretive texts carried into the theater by the bushel and read by match-light. Sample of the brothel-born maunderings of Ulysses' protagonist Leopold Bloom: "I wanted then to have now concluded...
...canvas. In 20 years he has turned out nine series of paintings on such subjects as Haitian Emperor Toussaint L'Ouverture, Negro migration, and Abolitionist John Brown. The success of his approach is attested to by the fact that six of the series have ended up intact in top U.S. museums or public collections. For his latest, 30 small 12-in.-by-16 in. tempera panels (of an eventual 60), Painter Lawrence, 39, has broadened his range, taken in not only the Negro, but the whole nation. His ambitious subject: the birth of the U.S. and its struggle...
