...Konrad Adenauer, Queen Elizabeth, Lyndon Baines Johnson, Francisco Franco and Fidel Castro, and so was John F. Kennedy. That, at least, is what it says in Les Juifs (The Jews), a new novel about world Jewry, "known and unknown," by French Satirist Roger Peyrefitte, 57, whose Keys of Saint Peter was attacked as "lewdly libelous" by the Vatican in 1956 and promptly sold half a million copies in Italy and France. The Jews may do equally well, largely because France's mighty De Rothschilds brought suit to get the book banned in France last week-and lost...

Drawing the line at flattering the man, Romanino portrayed him, standing at the foot of the saint, as hawk-nosed, heavy-jowled and haughty...
...TIME'S cover is neither a naiad nor the creation of a fashion editor's imaginative whim. She is Mrs. William J. Anderson III, named Michael because she is the third of three daughters in a family that had been hoping for a boy. She is swimming not at Saint Tropez but at Sea Island, Ga.; she comes not from such routinely celebrated places as Manhattan, Boston, or Philadelphia, but from Nashville, Tenn...
