Lowenstein, the Democratic-Liberal candidate for Congressman from Nassau Country's fifth district, was exhausted Tuesday. His clothes were rumpled, and his hair kept slipping down over his forehead. He was running against Mason L. Hampton Jr., a Republican-Conservative and often called "the Wallace of Nassau Country...
Under Hadden's rule, TIME had been extraordinarily carefree and sometimes irresponsible - a state of affairs, writes Elson, which "present-day TIME editors and writers can envy." Hadden delighted in journalistic pranks. He peopled the Letters column with invented characters, most notably the puritanical lady who kept objecting to the Prince of Wales' loose living, inciting other letter writers to object to her narrow views.

And there is Gertrude Lawrence, played by Julie Andrews. Visually, Julie has vanished into the part. The pert little nose has been thickened, the hairline lowered, the eyebrows thinned, the mouth made severe and straight. It is only the emotional makeup that is wrong...
