...format. Over the years we have added many departments and dropped others as their time passed. Stories range from 20-line shorts to two-page essays, as well as the weekly five-or six-page cover articles. Occasionally, an event is of such extraordinary importance that it demands special treatment. This week, to mark what may well be the most momentous journey since 1492, TIME tells of Apollo 11's odyssey to the moon in a 14-page Special Supplement. It is our second supplement this year. The Jan. 24 issue carried the first, "To Heal a Nation," when...
...Cairo, "if I thought I was accomplishing something. But nobody listens any more. You request a ceasefire, and they smile and keep firing." That lack of accomplishment was painfully apparent. In what amounted to Egypt's most successful cross-Suez attack since the end of the 1967 war, "special commando forces" penetrated Israeli positions near Port Tewfik, severely damaging two tanks, killing five Israelis, wounding another three and taking one prisoner.

Being a member of the alumni associations of the Lycée Petrus Ky or the Lycée Jean-Jacques Rousseau, both in Saigon, is a mark of special distinction among the elite. There are other ties of common background. Many intellectuals fled the North in 1954 when the Communists took over there. Lawyer Tran Ngoc Lieng, one of the leaders of the Progressive Nationalist Force Committee, was a schoolmate of North Vietnamese Defense Minister Vo Nguyen Giap...
Naval Architect Claude Graf wanted to change houses at Port Grimaud, but refused to sell his old one until he got an offer from a sailboat owner. Why did Graf choose Port Grimaud in the first place? "When it comes to requiring special attention, boats are worse than babies. And in bad weather it's practical to have them so close at hand." Fortunately for the sanity of those who are not all that crazy about boats, there are exceptions to the nautical mystique. Annette Englebert (of the Belgian tire family) owns a villa ten miles up into...
