...aboard a light cruiser. He stands importantly at the head of the gangway in his capacity as Assistant Secretary of the Navy, noting his own flag, designed by him, flying above the bridge. He is obviously using the warship as the most agreeable means he can think of to journey up to his vacation retreat at Campobello...
...great western epic, except greatness. In her book based on a bleak episode of American history, Mari Sandoz re-created the ordeal of 286 Cheyenne Indians, stung by the indignities of exile on a reservation, who in 1878 fought and starved and struggled through a 1,500-mile journey from Oklahoma's Indian Territory to their homeland in eastern Montana. En route, with U.S. Army units ever at their heels, they were bedeviled by bad weather, bitter dissension, and the white man's cruelty. In this wayward, 3-hr. movie version, Director John Ford dehydrates history and tosses...
After Long Day's Journey into Night and The Iceman Cometh, it is scarcely news that Jason Robards and O'Neill are incomparable stagemates, or that Robards possesses consummate skills. He shuns Ivy League gentility, and he has never pretended to be a T-shirted slob-esthete who fusses with the Meth od. He belongs to an older and solider breed, the man in actor's clothing.

A doubting world has long since been convinced of the determination of most West Germans to redress the evil of Nazidom. Nevertheless, a fear remains that many of Hitler's villains may go scot-free.* Under the German penal code, the statute of limitation for murder runs out after 20 years. That means that no further prosecution of Nazi killers can be instituted after May 8, 1965, or 20 years after...
Mariner's mission is manifold. During its journey away from the sun, it will radio back information on radiation, magnetic fields and micrometeorites. If all goes perfectly, it is supposed to, transmit data on the density of the Martian atmosphere that could be invaluable to U.S. scientists who are hoping to land a capsule there by 1969. As a final dividend, it will also try to take 22 still pictures with a television camera during a 30-minute flyby some 8,600 miles from the red planet. The pictures will be transmitted to earth from 150 million miles...
