Terry and KLZ won the award for their successful editorial fight against a Colorado Supreme Court ruling that would have barred news photographers and broadcasters from one of the year's most dramatic murder trials. In Denver Jack Graham was about to go on trial, charged with placing a time bomb aboard an airliner that blew up in midair, killing his mother and 43 other passengers and crewmen (TIME, Nov. 28). The court invoked longstanding Canon 35 of the American Bar Association code, which bans cameras from courtrooms. "I was home ill that day," recalled Colorado Supreme Court Justice...

Both of the big names have been replaced by other big names (June Allyson and Jack Lemmon), and the new people give it all they've got. But somehow the second night in that tourist cabin, like the start of a second honeymoon, is not quite the same as the first-especially when those well-known "walls of Jericho" go tumbling down...
