Visually, Planet of the Apes is just as senseless. The ape community looks to have been designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, on an off-day. A lengthy fight sequence between Heston and the apes achieves next to no continuity because director Franklin Schaffner fools around too much with the camera. But the apes themselves, if a cut below their remarkable prototypes in 2001: A Space Odyssey, could easily be worse--with lousy makeup or lousy actors. Kim Hunter, Roddy McDowall and Maurice Evans are the best...
Actually, race seems not to be a major issue. Maurice C. McNeill, 36, a native of North Carolina, started teaching biology six years ago at the senior high school in Baldwin (pop. 35,000), a Long Island suburb, 35 minutes from New York. One of his pupils was Susan Schaffner, 16, who had racked up a succession of A's and B's until McNeill gave her a C+ in sophomore biology. To upgrade the mediocre mark in hopes of improving her chances to enter a good college, Susan this summer took a repeat course in biology. While...
...testified to a similar incident. Assigned to tutor her at home after she had broken a hip in an auto accident, McNeill "put his hands on my breast and said, 'Where did you get these secondary sex characteristics?'

Most of EFTA's other members remained cool to the idea of strong action. Said Swiss Economics Minister Hans Schaffner: "It would be like asking a couple in a divorce action to adopt a child." At week's end the delegates settled for a mild expression of readiness to talk whenever the EEC is ready, authorized Haekkerup to press his views with the ambassadors of Common Market countries in Denmark (which he immediately did). That was a timorous step. Still, it showed that EFTA's members, no less than the EEC's "other five," agree that...
Most of the manufacturers are busy buying up established chains to get the outlets they need to raise sales. Hart Schaffner & Marx now has 120, Cluett, Peabody 48. Second-place Botany Industries (1964 sales: $134 million) operates 78 stores, will soon take over more. Botany President Michael Daroff is particularly interested in the 18-to 28-year-olds, who not only have money but can set styles. Botany is equipping each of its stores with a Mustang Shop, where salesmen are young, Cokes are served, and youthful customers are urged to chat, browse and buy the go-go clothes aimed...
