...harvest, or soon will be, and there is a buoyancy in the air as autumn comes in with its blazing hues of foliage. Vacation time is past, but ahead are football weekends with all their tangy exuberance. And for many a family, now is the time for the weekend jaunt. Increasingly, the stop en route will be for good eating. Whether steered by word of mouth or by such guides to gastronomy as the Mobil Travel Guide (which this year sold more than 1,000,000 at $1.95 each), discriminating motorists are timing their trips to take advantage...
Against Towel-Throwing. Geyelin takes the position that Johnson, for all the seasoning he had had since 1932 in Washington, came to the presidency poorly prepared in the area of foreign policy. Shortly before, on an official jaunt through Southeast Asia, L.B.J. had shocked some Asians by letting out a rebel yell inside the Taj Mahal, and proclaiming that Viet Nam's Ngo Dinh Diem was "the Winston Churchill of Asia."

On the first jaunt, by the time the ship reached Hong Kong, three girls and one boy had been "asked to leave" for drinking and sex offenses. During the recently completed semester, two professors were let go: one, who lectured on hashish, was dismissed after some of his subject was found aboard; the other had violated university rules by entertaining students at jazz and beer parties in his office on the ship's fantail. All in all, says Roberta Mount, "it's really...
Jazz NOW'S THE TIME! (RCA Victor). After years spent stubbornly exploring the back roads of modern jazz, Tenor Saxophonist Sonny Rollins knows his way unerringly around the territory. He goes off like a firecracker in Miles Davis' Four, takes a postmeridian jaunt in John Lewis' Afternoon in Paris, nods to Charlie Parker in his dry-eyed blues Now's the Time, makes Thelonious Monk's 'Round Midnight sound fathoms deep...
