...Women. "The bandit Tunga Khan won't dare to molest us-we're American citizens," says a frail missionary lady, reeling off exposition at a godforsaken outpost in northern China in the year 1935. Of course, most of the dreadful events thus predicted duly come to pass, and all that remains to arouse sympathy is the plight of some rather interesting actresses, trapped on MGM's chintzy Chinese sound stage with absurd situations, hoked-up direction and dialogue like wet firecrackers...

...holding company, I.F.I., which owns 25% of Fiat stock. Agnelli became a vice president of Fiat in 1945 and then a managing director in 1963, all the while swinging socially with an easy smile and a classic Roman profile. The skiing and boating pal of everyone from the Aga Khan to Jacqueline Kennedy, he is married to willowy Princess Marella Caracciolo. Italian Communists claim that he is the richest man in Europe, which Agnelli says is "complete nonsense." But he does admit: "I'm the man who pays the highest taxes in Italy...

Through the festive streets of Rawalpindi clanked five Chinese-built T-59 tanks, dipping their long, angular gun barrels as they passed President Mohammed Ayub Khan's reviewing stand. Then the walls of the capital reverberated to the roar of a Pakistani Air Force flyby, led by four silvery MIG-19s. A flock of American-supplied aircraft trailed cautiously at the rear, mostly B57 bombers, F-86 Sabres and F-104 Starfighters. Ayub's armory had a new look, and he was flaunting it before his SEATO and CENTO allies...

...less unscrupulous about invading people's privacy. When they are not wading out into the Mediterranean to sneak pictures of Brigitte Bardot semi-nude on her private beach, they are risking their necks schussing down the ski slopes of the Alps on the track of the Aga Khan. In one typical operation they took a picture of a Parisian professor chatting with one of his students in a Left Bank bistro, then used it to illustrate an article attacking "old pigs" who debauch teenage girls...
