...Visiting List Already growling bearishly at President Eisenhower's declaration of U.S. Middle East policy, the Soviet Union doubtless would grunt a little more this week at the social season linked delicately to an extension of U.S. diplomatic activity on many fronts. Heading the calendar: a three day state visit, beginning Jan. 30, by one of the world's last absolute monarchs, Saudi Arabia's bespectacled ghutra-draped King Saud Ibn Abdul Aziz al Faisal al Saud.

...Layman Joseph P. Kennedy, ex-U.S. Ambassador to Britain and father of Massachusetts' Senator John Kennedy, announced that he would keep the picture out of his chain of 23 theaters in Maine and New Hampshire. (In Washington a Joint Services Commission discreetly omitted the picture from the list approved for showing in theaters of the armed forces; G.I.s will have to go to public movie houses to see it.) But in 18 key cities from New York to Los Angeles, Baby Doll piled up grosses that Variety called HUGE, SOCK, WHOPPING and TERRIF...
