...seeing Tony Curtis play the hero. Last week the New York Times announced that it would at long last present Schuster with his grand prix of $1,000. Now 95, totally blind, Schuster has no regrets. "In my lifetime," he says, "I have seen the automobile change from a rich man's plaything into everybody's servant, and remake America. I often like to think that the race back in 1908 was at least a little responsible...

...after five years of testing, a new blood extract called RhoGAM has arrived on the market. It enables doctors to protect each subsequent child by merely inoculating the mother. RhoGAM consists of a gamma-globulin fraction rich in Rh antibodies. Injected into the Rh-negative mother's bloodstream no later than three days after a miscarriage or the birth of her first Rh-positive child, it curtails her immune mechanism's production of antibodies and lessens the danger to future Rh-positive children. The inoculation must be repeated after each miscarriage or birth, but the tests show that...

...Rich on $1,167 a Year. With its exploding population (increasing 3.4% a year) and depressed economy, Ecuador indeed needs action. "A rich man here," says Ecuador's retiring interim President, Otto Arosemena, "is poorer than a porter on Wall Street." The 2% of the population that the government considers to be rich has an annual per capita income of only $1,167. Most of the country's 5,400,000 people-40% Indian, 50% mestizo and 10% white-live in abject poverty, either scratching out a living in the scabrous, rock-strewn Andes or drifting into...

Scurrilous Charm. Author Burgess is sounding again an ancient warning of his trade: that the poet's natural enemies remain varied and dangerous. The hostile forces manifest themselves as rich but tasteless patrons, pop singers, and even other poets, one of whom steals the Minotaur theme and turns it into a screenplay for Son of the Beast from Outer Space...
