Laurel and Hardy were virtually the only silent comedy stars to repeat their phenomenal success in talkies, probably because their miming spoke louder than words. Stan remained a model of amiable imbecility, impervious to thought. Ollie, a blob just a shade brighter, bumbled his way through every difficulty with ineffable grace, slowly building up vast reserves of despair, self-pity and frustration that only a long pained look into the camera could dispel...
...noticeable. In spite of U.S. sanctions, Cuba and Red China carry on. South Africa hardly realizes that it is being boycotted by 46 nations that are incensed at apartheid.

In a period when the best of his contemporaries are feverishly trying to break the sound barriers of jazz, Tenorman Getz continues to play it cool. He now commands a top fee of $5,000 a performance, and his schedule for the past month was typical. After playing to a collective audience of 100,000 in six sellout concerts in Japan, he touched down at a Skokie, III, shopping center, where 15,000 persons had waited an hour...
