Time to Swallow. Most volatile issue in Ethiopia today, however, is not economics but relations with the neighboring Somalilands (TIME, Sept. 14). In the rise of a Pan-Somalia movement among the tribes of French, British and Italian Somaliland, the Ethiopians fancy they discern the bogeyman of British and Italian imperialism. This, plus Italian Somali-land's decision to demand a U.N.-supervised referendum in Somali grazing lands inside the borders of Ethiopia, constitute one of the chief sources of Haile Selassie's growing suspicion of the West. With an age-old fear of Moslem encirclement, the Ethiopians...
...inhaled deeply, and hit the water at the gun with long, smooth strokes. When she flashed home last week in 4:55.9 for the 400 meters, Chris von Saltza of Saratoga, Calif, had broken her U.S. record by 2.2 sec., neatly finished the job of turning Chicago's Pan-American Games into a one-girl swim. In all, Chris carried off five gold medals: she won the 100, 200 and 400 meters, was a member of the winning team in the 400-meter freestyle relay and the 400-meter medley. What was more, all of the times were Pan...

And the songs are enough to make even Tin Pan Alley blush: / Could Have Danced All Night comes out: "Electra too, with colors new and thrilling-the richest fabrics you can see ..." The sell is so hard that it gongs like boiler plate. But it gets results. Salesmen and their quarry pack the house...
Exercise is a good thing, physicians from a variety of specialties agreed last week at a Sports Medicine Congress held in Chicago in connection with the Third Pan-American Games. But how much exercise is best? What kind? At what time of life? To these key questions there were no sharp answers, because medical science knows surprisingly little about the specific effects of different types of exercise on the human heart. As the experts puffed toward the finish line, they reached a consensus on some preliminary findings. ¶Athlete's heart" is an unfortunate term that should be discarded...
Some Lutherans, concerned that the trend to confession represents a risky rise in clerical power that is incompatible with Protestant principles, minimize it as a flash in the pan that flares in the fervor of a Kirchentag and subsides in the cooler air of everyday life. Yet a growing number of clergymen, like Munich's Pastor Adolf Sommerauer, see a strong and rising tide. "There are those who worry that confession could become a sort of fad. There is no need to propagate it. Now that it is known throughout the church that it is available, those who need...
