...finger waving, Vellucci opens fire: "Mister Rudolph, we held up that money so you could come in here and tells us about," the councillor pauses for emphasis, "WIN-sor Street." Heavy traffic on Windsor was Vellucci's opener last Monday, but the councillor soon moved on to other favorites--a stop sign at 4th and Hurley, a traffic light at 6th and Gore. After a while Vellucci got tired and said "I have a big long list, but I'll save it for another night when we'll make you the big star here." Rudolph was lucky that time; only...
...memoir, My Twelve Years with John F. Kennedy, that gave readers a faithful slavey's-eye view of the boss she loved and served as personal secretary. Her second installment, Kennedy & Johnson, about to be published by Holt, Rinehart & Winston, wastes little love on J.F.K.'s succes sor.

France's fore most authority on paleontology, Profes sor Jean Piveteau, is equally emphatic. "It appears to show that prehistoric man already had a certain social organization 200,000 years ago." Before the Nice discovery, the oldest known man-made dwelling, dating from around 150,000 years ago, was unearthed in southern Italy, but it contained far fewer...
Meeter & Greater. Mikoyan's succes sor as Soviet chief of state is Nikolai Viktorovich Podgorny, 62, who rose to power as a protege of Nikita Khrushchev's. A hard-bitten Ukrainian with little experience in foreign affairs, Podgorny's main claim to power in the hierarchy was his control of party cadres-a job he may well lose as a result of his "elevation." The Soviet presidency is largely ceremonial, and without strong party posts its occupant is little more than a meeter and greeter. Podgorny, in short, seemed to have been kicked upstairs, with one nagging...
