...total of 23 grandchildren for Joe and Rose. Since the Kennedy ladies are stylesetters, it may also be quite chic to be pregnant this summer. Joan and Ethel have bought a couple of closetfuls of creations by Manhattan Designer Nancy Herzlinger, a lithe, attractive mother of four. Her Nan Dee maternity clothes are made with four side seams; each releases at the pull of a thread to add inches when they're needed. Jackie insists that she will try to make do with the same wardrobe she wore while John...
Joseph Papp, raised an Orthodox Jew, went ahead with his performance and his TV commitments. Unhappily, despite the raspingly effective performance of George C. Scott as Shylock and a smoothly urbane Portia by Nan Martin, the production was not up to the usual Papp standard. But 200 critics and 100,000 rabbis could not shake Joe Papp out of his fortress now.

But with its well-publicized drought ("for 40 days it was possible to drive a car along the bed of the Yellow River," said Chinese Ambassador to Poland Wang Ping-nan recently), Peking was unable to deliver its part of the bargain. Instead, China has been sent scrabbling to buy wheat for itself from Canada, foodstuffs from other non-Communist nations to feed the folks at home...
