...Americans yearn for group practice; events are outpacing the lawyer's one-to-one relationship with clients. Warned Kuhn: "We've got to make up our minds as to whether we're going to face the facts of life or stick our heads in the damned sand." Apart from caution or complacency, the chief pressure against change comes from the A.B.A.'s 1908 canons of ethics (now being studied for revision), which condemn all efforts to stir up law business and flatly ban "lay intermediaries" -non-lawyers who aid in the choice of a lawyer.

Twenty years ago, over an arid stretch of New Mexican sand that the Spaniards called Jornada del Muerto (Journey of Death), history's first atomic bomb blasted the dawn. This is the sometimes chilling story of that still chilling event. The author, a correspondent in TIME'S Washington bureau, has done a painstakingly thorough job of reporting that makes that lurid moment seem to have happened only yesterday...

Farther to the east stands Mauna...
Thomson did it on familiar ground: England's Royal Birkdale golf course, 7,037 yds. of sand, gorse, bracken and narrow fairways that twist like green ribbons around the bleak coast of Liverpool Bay. It was at Royal Birkdale that Thomson won his first British Open in 1954-when Arnold Palmer was still an amateur and Jack Nicklaus was in junior high school. Palmer was there last week, gunning for his third British Open with a brand-new putter and the happy air of a man who has given up trying to give up smoking. So was Nicklaus, grimly...
