...governments. At India's biggest refugee camp, in Madhya Pradesh state, 500 miles west of the East Pakistan border, 50,000 Pakistani Hindus are crammed into makeshift tents and huts. There are only six doctors for the entire camp, and in the suffocating heat (110° in the shade) children die like flies. East Pakistan has erected dozens of its own refugee camps. To hasten integration of the newcomers, some local officials have ordered villages to absorb a fixed quota of the refugees, who come in relentless hundreds each...
...leonine wind prowled through the saw grass, rattling the few gaunt thornbushes that dot the banks of the Zambezi River near Kasane. Potbellied kids squatted in the shade of round, white-walled mud huts while their mothers hacked with mattocks in the maize patches. Down at the riverbank, "Captain" Nelson Maibolwa puttered with twin 18-h.p. outboard motors slung on a ramshackle wood-and-iron pontoon. Behind him flowed the sun-dappled, grey-green Zambezi, where crocodiles, hippos and shoals of saber-toothed tiger-fish eternally wait their prey. There came the sound of a laboring truck engine, and brawny...
...ectomorphs are in heaven. "I wear Jax, Jax, Jax all day," cries best-dressed, lightweight Mrs. Loel Guinness. Audrey Hepburn wears nothing but Jax (and an occasional Givenchy).

Elizabeth Taylor is a shade too "buxom," says Hanson but she bought $3,000 worth of Jax clothes anyway last month. One reason for the slacks' close, nude fit: a zipper up the back that doesn't bulge like side zippers...
EDUARDŌ RAMIREZ and EDGAR NEGRET-Graham, 1014 Madison Ave. at 78th (third floor). Two modern classicists from Colombia. In Ramirez' wood reliefs, white shade echoes white light, in which an occasional note of intense blue or black resounds. Negret makes bright, painted aluminum sculptures. A decorative show. Through...
Kenya's Prime Minister Jomo Kenyatta took a harsher line. In the shade of a wild fig tree near Nakuru, where the 11th Battalion of his Kenya Rifles had mutinied, a military tribunal sorted out sheep from goats. Each of 500 suspects was trotted out at British bayonet point, briefly but intensely quizzed, then adjudged either "black" (an active, armed mutineer), "grey" (doubtful) or "white." (Worried about the color code's racial implications, the tribunal first tried a red-green-yellow system but found it too confusing.) All told, the tribunal tagged 100 black sheep. Kenyatta promised...
