LIFE'S new managing editor, a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Harvard ('48), joined LIFE because a friend advised him that a few years on such a magazine would be invaluable experience for a novelist. He has since published two novels (Thanks for the Ride and The Lost Eagles), but they have not distracted him from his career as an editor. In his assignment outside the pressures of weekly deadlines, Graves has had time to develop some firm ideas for improving LIFE. Never a chatty journalist, though, he contends that an editor must be judged not on what...
...Africa, Oceania and the Americas. All were on loan from the Museum of Primitive Art, which Rockefeller founded in 1957 and endowed with his collection. Since then, the museum has been expanded considerably, most notably by the Asmat carvings collected by Nelson's son Michael before he was lost off the coast of New Guinea in 1961.

Together they pick the hambone clean in a search for the usual lost gold cache -before they get wiped out in the customary massacre. Left over are a Mexican villain (Omar Sharif), leathery Marshal Mackenna (Gregory Peck), one surly, burly Apache and two obligatory ladies. The blonde (Camilla Sparv), supposedly Arizona-born and bred, speaks with a heavy Swedish accent. The Indian maiden (Julie Newmar...
Outside the EIBL, Harvard went undefeated to win the Greater Boston League championship. In its finest game of the season, the Crimson beat B.U. 5-4 and Springfield 6-2. Yale lost to Springfield earlier in the year 8-5, while the Terriers easily demolished Dartmouth...
