An exotically garbed palace guard held a giant green parasol over their heads to screen them from the afternoon sun, and 200 schoolgirls in bright green sampots, the traditional skirts, sprinkled her path with fragrant rose and jasmine petals, which they carried in silver bowls-the Buddhist way, explained Sihanouk, of honoring very special guests...
...island. Symbolically, it is an out post of hell, an arid devil's island of an awful marriage that has lasted almost 25 years.

While on an assignment in 1952, she interviewed and later married Finnish-born Architect Eero Saarinen (it was her second marriage). After his death eight years later, she appeared on a 1962 CBS special on Lincoln...
...million. Jersey Standard Chairman Michael L. Haider announced that the world's largest oil company had substantially increased its Western Hemisphere operations, and had a third-quarter rise in earnings of 15.8%, to $315 million. Gulf Oil's U.S. production was up in the quarter, and earnings rose 13%, to $138.4 millions. Phillips Petroleum, pumping more oil than ever from domestic wells, had record revenues for the quarter of $496,309,000 and record profits...
