...upper house of the Japanese Diet. Premier Nobusuke Kishi (who some U.S. worrywarts once thought would prove anti-American) campaigned by urging closer ties with the U.S. The rival Socialists, looking for somewhere else to go, demanded abrogation of the U.S.-Japanese Security Pact and firm alliance with Red China and the Soviet Union. When the votes were in, Premier Kishi had won a clear victory, capturing 71 of the contested seats to 38 for the Socialists. The Socialists lost nearly a million votes-the first such fall-off in ten years. At party headquarters, Secretary-General Asanuma said glumly...
...answer to both questions is yes, according to investigators at the University of Southern California School of Medicine. Red-haired and vivacious at 60, Dr. Jessie Marmorston reported last week on 174 women (many over 70) who had had one or more heart attacks-in nearly every case a coronary occlusion. She divided them into two equal groups, matched as precisely as possible for age and severity of symptoms. One-half got a small daily dose (ten-millionths of a gram) of estrogen, the rest got none. After three years, more than twice as many in the nonestrogen group...

The richly decorative materials-first approach is handsomely demonstrated in one whole red-walled gallery at the museum's show. There Italian-born Harry Bertoia's Wall Piece ($750) melds steel, bronze and phosphor into an elegant decoration. Bertoia makes no claim for it beyond stating he considers it "a few squares arranged in a quiet way around a stand...
Woman Obsessed (20th Century-Fox). "You'll never touch me again!" cries the red-haired Saskatchewan farm wife (Susan Hayward) at her rednecked husband (Stephen Boyd), who has just whopped her one in the face. She slams the bedroom door and locks it. Bellowing like a mad bull, he busts the door down and-blackout. Several scenes later, Susan announces bitterly that she is pregnant. As the four-column ads explain it: "She hated the child whose life stirred within her because it was part of him whom she loathed and despised." She prays that she will lose...
