Amidst hurrying and often indifferent subway riders, a University group advocating a Sane Nuclear Policy marched with placards, distributed handbills, and carried jibes before WBZ-TV cameras at Park and Tremont Streets yesterday afternoon...
...first Formula Juniors were built in Italy three years ago as a safe and sane training car for Grand Prix drivers. Appalled by the dearth of first-class Italian drivers, Count Giovanni Lurani, an oldtime competitor himself, got together with drivers and automakers to devise a small sandlot version of the bellowing, big-engined (2,500 cc.) Ferraris and Maseratis-just as the familiar midget racers are pocket-sized editions of the Indianapolis "big cars." To make it safe, the Formula Junior got its dinky engine. To make it cheap, the class was restricted to using parts from standard touring...
Southern Exposure. The aristocracy still produces its rare blooms, such as Henrietta Tiarks, 1957's Debutante of the Year, and young Lady Beatty. But except for the consistently smart Duchess of Kent and the occasional piquancy of Princess Margaret, the royal family itself is too safe and sane to serve as popular fashion plates for Britain's enterprising young women.

Since then, passing through the [Audrey] Hepburn phase, we are now being...
...final paragraph of Taylor's reply was the most sensible and sane statement on the whole controversy: "My objection to the art, like the jury comment, is based on the fact that it reflects a declining aesthetic climate.

...British playwright N. F. Simpson is not a raving lunatic, although that is the first impression his two plays give. On the contrary, Mr. Simpson is lucidly, frighteningly, overwhelmingly sane. His unblinking perception of the rationalized madness that we call human life misleads one at first into thinking his plays gibberish, but we soon perceive that they are not the products of a chimpanzee pecking away at a typewriter, beloved example of statisticians as the primate may be. A Resounding Tinkle and The Hole are the result of something as rare as chimps actually--rather than in imagination--at typewriters...
