...shown, and even so, he shocked as well as awed. Battles intrigued him, massacres fascinated him, the combination of blood and splendor, of luxury and pain, seemed to inspire him. In his mind, he traveled over India and the Near East, filling it full of glittering jewels, gilded swords, muscular slaves, milk-skinned concubines. He was one of the great melodramatists of all time, and his melodramas were always superb. His Sardanapalus was inspired by reading a dramatic poem by Lord Byron, and the picture he painted has the impact of an orgy. The figures are so arranged...
...redeeming comic episode of the show is the muscular seduction of a D'humian intellectual by a girl called Sue Ann Rockefellow (Mary Louise Wilson), whose clincher in the clinch is, "Shim, you have a friend at Chase Manhattan." As the corn-pone Congressman says, "You fellahs should have known what was going to happen when you sent overdeveloped girls into underdeveloped countries...
Even one of Nasser's enemies in the Arab world-the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan-showed signs last week of being discreetly available.

A medical team traced her trouble to a small tumor on her right adrenal gland, which was pumping out a flood of aldosterone although there was no excess...
...Watching the show as a spectator, the U.S.'s Dick Button, five times a world champion himself, was awed by the Dutch girl. "Tremendous. She has the strength of a man. She is probably the most powerful woman skater who has ever existed." Packing a muscular 140 lbs. on her 5-ft. 6-in. frame, Sjoukje Dijkstra does not try to dazzle the judges with her femininity. She cuts the ice with her athletic ability and prim, peril feet routines. Other skaters warm up in buttons and bows, but Sjoukje wears a blue sweatsuit marked "Nederland...
