Mullin draws for a New York audience, but he has become a national institution. Besides the World-Telly, where he has appeared six times a week for the past 23 years (except for vacations and one missed deadline when a cartoon was lost), Mullin runs sporadically in the other 20 Scripps-Howard papers, regularly in the weekly Sporting News. His madcap figures have also illustrated dozens of magazine articles (LIFE. Saturday Evening Post), peddled Ramblers for American Motors Corp., and brightened Frank G. Menke's Encyclopedia of Sports...
...Master Sergeant Sam Karst, 34, from Greenville, S.C. kept going up. As the altimeter needle circled past the 50,000-ft mark, his eyes began to glaze, and the veins in his neck stood out like rawhide thongs. After 1½ minutes at an empyrean 55,000 ft. (equivalent to as much as 7½ miles above Evans' peak), Karst had had enough. Said he: "I could have stayed up longer, but I knew I was hypoxied,* so I signaled down...

...first book, the madwoman of Beekman Place was getting on toward 60 and past her best years (although she would not have admitted it). Clearly Author Dennis (real name: Edward Everett Tanner III) had to backtrack and find a more youthful Mame. Deftly he discovered a hitherto overlooked interlude. It seems that between the time Mame's nephew Patrick was kicked out of St. Boniface Academy in Apathy, Mass. and the time he entered college and the brawny embrace of Bubbles, the waitress, there was a broadening period of travel...
This important new novel, second of a projected group of four, carries forward perhaps the most exhaustive study of love since Proust's Remembrance of Things Past. In the first volume, Justine (TIME, Aug. 26, 1957), Author Durrell, 46, brilliantly evoked the city of Alexandria, which has festered for 2,000 years between the sun-sparkling Mediterranean and the Egyptian desert. Balthazar covers the same terrain and time span as the first. It is as if the reader were making a return train journey through a landscape he had just crossed-only now he is sitting on the opposite...
