...North Koreans threatened and often beat the men in order to extract "confessions." At one point, said Bucher, "they threatened to commence shooting the most junior members of my crew." He added: "I was rarely beaten in the face because I was subjected to a lot of camera ordeals, and they wanted me to look at least presentable. But this didn't prevent them from caving in my ribs, or kicking me in the tailbone to the point where I was almost unable to walk for weeks...
This spring, when Clay Felker revived New York, which had died with the World-Journal-Tribune, Gloria found her medium. Finally, she could write freely on sociology and politics. Says Felker breathlessly and in terms appropriate to a sort of junior Mary McCarthy or a Colette reborn: "She is a modern woman, independent and activist, a beautiful, intelligent, with-it, extraordinarily well-informed, first-class brain." When she practices instant sociology, the first-class brain slips occasionally. Her recent "Notes on the New Marriage" between dominating women and homosexual men contained a fascinating idea, but was flawed by superficiality...
Gentled Rock. Julie's attendants are mainly school and college friends of David's and hers. Julie's older sister Tricia will be maid of honor, and David's best man will be Fred Grandy of Sioux City, Iowa, a Harvard junior who was his roommate through four years at Exeter.

Covers a lot of ground. Likes to play it tight. Tough." If he were not a junior, another top contender is Jake Scott, Georgia, 6 ft. 1 in., 190 Ibs. He is a blue-streak threat on punt returns. When he becomes available, some scouts contemplate using him as a running back because of "his skill and instinct for using blockers...
...could turn every TV set into a teaching machine. Though an EVR owner will not be able to record his own programs, he will be able to order pre-made films on almost any topic. In theory, a family equipped with EVR will become a self-contained educational center: Junior will study the sex life of grasshoppers (the subject Goldmark drolly demonstrated last week), Father will settle back for an evening of golf lessons or an audio-visual version of LIFE and Mother will sharpen her French through an EVR correspondence course. CBS has already drawn up a manufacturing agreement...
