...Near Laranjeiras the Orrs had visited a ranch where children were down with the pox, but nobody paid much heed or knew what kind.* By the time the Orrs got to bustling, ultramodern Sao Paulo, 400 miles away, James William Orr, 14, complained of fever and a sore throat. A local doctor diagnosed influenza and hopefully dosed him vith medicine. The feverish boy lay around Viracopos airport for hours before he flew, with 82 other travelers, on a Comet 4 jet to Idlewild...
Miss Britain quit to ban the bomb and Miss U.S.A. wailed: "My mouth is actually sore from smiling." But the smiles were just beginning for the grocer's daughter from Argentina, who proved to have the most universal appeal at the contest in Miami: Norma Beatriz Nolan, Miss Universe of 1962, a rare blend of Irish, Italian and Spanish, statistically 24, 5 ft. 6 in., 120 lbs. and 35-25-36.

"I'm leaving putts hanging all over the map." he groaned as he headed for the clubhouse. And if that was the kind of sweet-sour talk old Troon liked to hear, it certainly worked...
...blow to anyone. It appears to be a completely logical step in our religious demise. What is needed is not another amendment, such as that proposed by Senators Stennis and Robertson, for such an addition to the Constitution would indeed be an inadequate bandage for such a large sore. We must redefine the First Amendment and do away with all of this "separation of church and state" nonsense...
