Mobile Start. Joan Baez (she pronounces it By-ezz) was born on Staten Island. Jan. 9. 1941. But both her parents were foreign-born. Her mother was English-Scottish, the daughter of an Episcopal minister...
...Japan. Last year Japanese distilleries produced 9,000,000 gallons of whisky-two-thirds of which flowed from Kotobukiya, the country's oldest and largest distiller. Kotobukiya's prestige brew is "Old Suntory," a light, Scotch-type whisky that derives its musky flavor partly from imported Scottish peat and partly from Japanese water purified by filtering through lava beds. Old Suntory is palatable enough that Kotobukiya now exports it to 20 countries. But, says President Keizo Saji, 43, "our main market will always be Japan. We are aiming at our own people to become somewhat of an institution...
...Laborites, Prime Minister Macmillan ordered the correspondence published. Contrary to gossip, it turned out to be about as intimate as an Admiralty corridor. Addressed to "Dear Vassall" or "My Dear Vassall," the letters were mostly from the spy's former boss, pleasant, plodding Thomas Galbraith, 45, a Scottish M.P. who was Civil Lord of the Admiralty (roughly equivalent to U.S. Under Secretary of the Navy) until he was named Under Secretary for Scotland three years ago.

To Fleming fans, the dark hood looks of Scottish Actor Sean Connery were somewhat disturbing; they do not suggest Fleming's tasteful pagan so much as a used-up gigolo. Bond would never speak with a cigarette dangling from his urbane lips, for instance. But his lines are not contra-Bond: "It would be a shame to waste that Dom Perignon '55 by hitting me with it," says Doctor No. "I prefer...
...Jimmy Clark, 26, a Scottish farmer who took his first turn at the wheel of a Grand Prix racer only two years ago: the U.S. Grand Prix at Watkins Glen, N.Y., by the margin of 15 sec. over Britain's Graham Hill (TiME, Sept. 28). In a hurry to get home and "get the feed in for the winter," Clark gunned his low-slung V-8 Lotus into the lead at the start, set a new lap record (110.4 m.p.h.), and stubbornly fought off Hill-despite a clutch that failed midway through the 230-mi. contest.
