...dangdest bunch of lobbyists anyone ever laid eyes on-a five-man Arkansas jug band appearing before a Senate subcommittee on behalf of Green Thumb, a Government project that gives old folks jobs beautifying Arkansas roadsides. As the jug band sawed away, someone passed out Green Thumb hard hats (worn as protection against falling tree branches). One of the hats wound up atop that dour Arkansan John McClellan, 71. Without a change in his grim expression, McClellan stood up and began dancing a jig to the Arkansas Traveler, all the while slapping at the hat to keep it in place...

...attract the kind of fans that want to mother us," says Dick, 28. "We're so college-looking and clean-cut," says Tom, 30. "The American Legion likes us and so does the left wing." And so does every wing of the younger generation. The boys have the jug-eared look of Nebraska citybillies, or malt-shop cowboys. Even when they are mildly suggestive, they seem as harmless as two choirboys sneaking a smoke behind the organ.

Frock Coats & Turbans. In its permutations, the San Francisco Sound encompasses everything from bluegrass to Indian ragas, from Bach to jug-band music-often within the framework of a single song.

...curse. Look bought "The Christ mas Gift," Hemingway's 1954 account of near death in two plane crashes in Africa. What Look published was a mawkish self-portrait of the Hemingway hero emerging from the jungle with two bunches of bananas, four bottles of Carlsberg beer and a jug of Grand MacNish.

Among other new highs at Sotheby's: a Cézanne watercolor still life of a milk jug and apples, which brought $406,000-the highest price ever paid for any watercolor at auction. Since the bidder was a Los Angeles dealer, people speculated that he had acted for Collector Norton Simon, who remained mum. A Degas bronze horse pranced off for a record price of $51,800. A Chagall picture (circa 1917) brought $84,000, a new record for him. All in all, Sotheby's knocked down for $2,962,960, 87 works of art, a record...
