...Fernando Belaúnde Terry, Peru's vigorous and imaginative president, and the person he was putting on during a lull in the Punta del Este summit conference last week was Jerry Hannifin, Latin America specialist in our Washington bureau. Hannifin, along with White House Correspondent Hugh Sidey and a team of other TIME reporters and photographers, was covering the inter-American gathering at Uruguay's seaside playground, a gathering described by President Frei of Chile as "the most important in hemisphere history...

Bangkok was also the scene of Correspondent Bonnie Angelo's finest hour. Bonnie had been with Sidey and Photographer Walter Bennett on the press plane following Johnson.
