...give-'em-hell" campaign. Johnson's opponents prefer to compare him to the Truman of 1952, who decided not to run again in the midst of an unpopular war. Neither analogy quite fits. The fact is that the 1968 campaign is shaping up as a race like none before...
...years ago. Ulbricht's new design (see diagram) has been conceived with chilling efficiency; to test it, the East Germans erected a prototype at an army camp, rounded up some of the country's best athletes and let them try to cross the barriers without interference. None could makeit. Ulbricht has already completed nearly a third of what he calls his "modern border," hopes to rebuild the entire 99.5-mile ring around West Berlin...
Spinster's Delight. By comparison with Los Angeles' record, the number of such placements across the U.S. is still small: there has been only one in Bridgeport, Conn., one in San Francisco, one in Washington, D.C., four in Minneapolis.

Hard to top a steel-rich Phipps mother and a British father who was a polo-playing first cousin to Winston Churchill. Wife? None other than the patrician blonde "Ceezee," the former Lucy Cochrane of Boston (TIME cover, July 20, 1962), who, at 47, is one of the world's most elegant women. Hobbies? What's wrong with the Guests' Templeton Stables, whose thoroughbreds carry his and Ceezee's colors...
