Louis F. Fieser, a member of the Surgeon General's Advisory Committee on Smoking and Lung Cancer, said yesterday that Lark cigarettes were probably safer than all other brands...
Anouilh, best known in the U.S. for Becket and The Lark, likes to divide his plays into categories, calling some "black," like Antigone, some "rose," like Time Remembered, others "brillant" (sparklingly theatrical mixtures of the light and dark), like The Rehearsal, and still others "grating"-Waltz of the Toreadors.

Even the Lark name is being downplayed in favor of model names such as Challenger, Cruiser and Daytona. But the Studebakers will face fierce competition from Ford's sharply redesigned Falcons and the Chevy II, Dodge Dart and Chrysler Valiant...
