Dick Helms, 53, has made his career in what Washington calls the "intelligence community." A Williams College graduate and a newsman before joining the Navy in 1942, he served as an OSS officer during the war and signed up with the CIA at its founding in 1947. He rose to become deputy director for plans-meaning coyert operations-under McCone, and has since handled the agency's delicate relations with Congress while simultaneously directing most of the CIA's pure-intelligence functions as Raborn's first deputy. He thus became the first professional ever to head...
JEANETTE MACDONALD AND NELSON EDDY (RCA Victor). "Together again," as the previews of coming attractions used to say. Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life, Indian Love Call, Rose-Marie-they're all here, the original recordings, most of them never before put on LP and one, Song of Love from Blossom Time, never released at all until now. Tramp, Tramp, Tramp to the nearest record store...
...rose higher in the lunar sky and temperatures climbed toward 270° F. Jet Propulsion Laboratory scientists prepared to shut down their successful Surveyor spacecraft for a two-day siesta. Then they suddenly discovered that the protective shadows of Surveyor's solar panel and rectangular high-gain antenna had fallen over the television camera, keeping it cool enough to shoot pictures for an extra day.

When 36 graduates showed up with the arm bands and 16 walked out, the rest of the Amherst audience rose and loudly applauded Amherst President Calvin Plimpton's mention of McNamara. Moved by the ovation, Plimpton haltingly read the McNamara citation. His voice broke as he said: "You have displayed an integrity so unquestioned that, while I would still prefer to go myself, I am willing to trust my sons [he has three, aged 14 to 24] to your administration, knowing that there is an intellectual and compassionate human at the helm." As the honoris causa hood was placed...
...Russians Are Coming were as good as its best actor, the laughter might reach gale force. Sad to say, Director Norman Jewison and Scenarist William Rose, working from a novel by Nathaniel Benchley, seem too anxious, or too unsubtle, to sound the depths of a delightfully quirky human comedy. Instead they try too often for ding-dong farce, calling on a corps of hard-sell comedians to transform the townfolk into strident cartoons. Jonathan Winters as an addled police officer, Ben Blue as an irrelevant drunk, and Paul Ford as a sword-swinging Legionnaire are the chief offenders, since their...
