...Wally Gojanovich, who lives in Florida now, got off together. While we were running, they were strafing us. Little chips of cement were jumping up from the machine-gun bullets. I looked up and saw the plane, I saw -- saw! -- that smiling face. The mustache, the white scarf and the smiling face that I'll never forget as long as I live. Never...

Then he disappeared -- though not completely. "After 39 years," he explained in an interview with TIME, "I owe the family and myself a little time."

...seasonal purchases. There was a charming outfit by a no-name designer in delicious shades of pink and red (this is the year of color, remember): mohair coat, $725; cropped jacket, $575; knit dress, $230. The total for the ensemble: ! $1,530. That's not including the $68 wool scarf, $15 ribbed tights or the who- knows-how-much gloves.
