Miss Hill of the Personnel Office was partially responsible. She was contacted by the magazine about a feature on the single girl in Boston and asked to round up photogenic Harvard secretaries. Mrs. Marks and Marie Morneault, a secretary in Widener, were selected. Mrs. Marks' wedding ring is artfully concealed behind a pair of white gloves in the photograph. She didn't get to keep the suit...
Even the protests had a somewhat cheerful ring. Some 600 Beatle-maned students tried to crash the palace gates, were held back by police with rubber truncheons (one boy was hospitalized). Several harmless smoke bombs exploded along the parade route, providing good shots for the photographers and a thrill for the millions glued to their TV sets in The Netherlands and West Germany, but no danger to the princess or to the 80,000 loyal Dutchmen who turned out, despite a drizzle, to cry "Oranje Boven" (Up with the Orange). Beatrix and the new Prince Claus of The Netherlands took...
...said Gerda, she had known one of Diefenbaker's Ministers "very well," still wore the gold birthstone ring given to her by another, Associate Minister of National Defense Pierre Sevigny, whose "frequent companion" she had been from 1958 to 1960.

...most disturbing aspects of the LSD binge is that it has hit high schools and prep schools. A 17-year-old user reports that there is a sales ring in his Sherman Oaks school pushing LSD at a penny a microgram.

"I've taken as much as 500 micrograms," says one youthful user. "At least that's what I paid...
Most Diversionary Direction: to Russell Rouse, who apparently decided that hopeless dialogue can ring funny when played as high tragedy. "Do you bleed? Do you cry?" moans trampled Talent Scout Eleanor Parker. "I'm not some sort of garbage pail you can slide a lid on and walk away!" she adds. The less raunchy lines are disposed of in rounds of verbal pingpong. Let Boyd say "My head is splitting" (ping) and Wife Elke Sommer is sure to answer "So is our marriage" (pong). Milton Berle, Joseph Cotten, Jill St. John, Peter Lawford and Edie Adams all prove expert...
