WELL, IF IT ISN'T GRANNY IN TIGHTS, leered the London Daily Herald. LEGS, panted the Daily Mail. What excited Fleet Street was a novel slice of cheesecake: pert, serious Cinemactress Vivien Leigh, wife of Sir Laurence Olivier, and a grandmother at 45. Last week trim Lady Olivier slipped on a red satin bathing suit and black mesh stockings, made a slinky, twittery TV debut as Sabina, the talkative, never-say-die seductress-maid in Thornton Wilder's The Skin of Our Teeth. Critical verdict: Vivien once more proved that good legs are a ho-hum show...

In Bonn, confided the Daily Mail, Macmillan "completely won over Dr. Adenauer, to a system of step-by-step disarmament in Central Europe...
...operation since 1929, New Zealand's radio education programs for primary and secondary schools are tuned in daily by some 3,000 pupils like Rosetta, who send in their completed lessons by mail. Rosetta resolutely kept at her lessons, switching to a battery radio and kerosene lamp when the family's moody generator failed, and her teachers soon came to know her as well as if she had a front-row desk in their classrooms. She got a prize for written composition at eleven, and last year she graduated from high school with an armful of honors...
