...more like a country-club dance committee than the practical female politicos they are. Wearing the choicest congressional chapeaux, six of the nine Democratic women now in the House of Representatives gathered to enjoy hat chats and conversation about legislation. The exuberant lawmakers (left to right): Missouri's Leaner Sullivan, Michigan's Martha Griffiths, Idaho's Grade Pfost, Pennsylvania's Freshman Kathryn Granahan, Oregon's Edith Green, Georgia's Iris Blitch...
Figure of Fantasy. Actress Monroe stands 5 ft. 5½ in. in her stocking feet (5 ft. 9 in. in the stiletto heels her roles require), and she is a little leaner (118 Ibs.) than she looks on the screen. In a sweater, as everybody can see, she is a standout; "I defy gravity," says Marilyn. In skintight toreador pants, she manages to make the world's most famous come-on out of a simple walkaway, and Marilyn's face, by popular standards, is as spectacular as her figure...

...Seawolf, 330 ft. overall with only a 27-ft. beam, will cost about $53 million complete; it is slightly leaner, longer and more expensive than the Nautilus, the world's first atomic-powered submarine (TIME, Jan. 11, 1954). The drastic differences are inside: to further nuclear development, the Navy deliberately chose two distinct, competitive types of atomic reactors to power steam turbines aboard the two vessels. Unlike the water-cooled thermal reactor on the Nautilus, the Seawolf's high-speed reactor will be cooled by liquid sodium, will create more heat and energy and burn more nuclear fuel...
