...Nixon: Arkansas (6), Florida (14), Kentucky (9), Oklahoma (8), South Carolina (8), Texas (25) and Virginia (12). For Humphrey: Georgia (12), Louisiana (10), North Carolina (13-) and Tennessee (11)-But for a growing Negro vote, a deep-rooted Democratic tradition and the fact that most Wallace votes will be skin off Republican hides, Nixon might have been able to count on a clean sweep in Dixie.

In addition, the growing number of Negro and white-moderate voters should...

The quest for youth and beauty is the female way of whiling away time and money slimming expeditions to Main Chance or the Greenhouse, animal-cell injections by Niehans in Switzerland, face liftings by Rees or Converse in New York, and assorted blood aerations, breast shapings, or skin peelings.

Partly to encourage backers who were dismayed at the commercial anemia of his critical successes, Truffaut in The Soft Skin abandoned the visual conceits of, narrow and widening screen and rocketing flashbacks that characterized his previous works. Skin was a mild film of convention that won few admirers. Fahrenheit 451, starring Oskar Werner and Julie Christie, was his only true failure, an atypically emotionless sci-fi attempt to show the future as nightmare. The fact, of course, that...
...Lyons and its director, Roger Planchon, have scandalized French traditionalists by taking gross liberties with the classics to give them contemporary credence. A U.S. audience is more likely to feel the faint shock of cultural lag. Freshly attuned to the theater of tribal intimacy, with its skin-to-skin actor-audience confrontations and its stereophonic barrage of sound, a playgoer may be startled to see a stylized drama in which each line is pruned, each gesture sculptured, each scene framed...
