...pinto. Jason is the only male connected with the paper, which draws its management and work pool from the 24-member Penistaja Homemaker's Extension Club. It was called the Penistaja Woman's Club when the first issue came out on April 6, 1964, with a front-page dedication to "faith in God and country, hope for our future and charity to all," an admirable aim that has appeared in each succeeding issue. Somewhere along the line, "Woman's" inexplicably got changed to "Homemaker's." No one seems to remember why the switch, but, in any event, small potatoes...

With the exception of a rough period about three years ago, Cuba's merchants, whose immediate market numbers but a scant 1,500 citizens, have kept the News in the black with their advertising (full page, $50; half, $25; quarter, $12.50; want ad, $2).

His new deputy will be Leslie Gelb, 49, the Times's widely respected national-security correspondent...
...Washington bureau chief, a position he finally did get in 1968, "Max was the most humane editor," recalls one Pulitzer prizewinner who worked for him. "It was a happy shop. Then he became the Sunday editor [in 1973] and grew fangs." The incisors, apparently, were retractable; as editorial-page editor since 1977, Frankel earned a reputation for being fair and open-minded. He tempered the paper's traditionally liberal editorial stance while solidifying the page's influence. As TIME's Thomas Griffith once put it, he modulated the page's "Ugh, Big Chief Has Spoken" voice, leavening its ponderous eminence...
