Prowling the fashionable reaches of Manhattan's Fifth Avenue, the New York World-Telegram and Sun's Pulitzer Prize-winning Staffer Frederick Woltman discovered that Le Pavilion, the town's poshest paradise for fat-walleted gourmets (sample price: $5 for a nibble of imported pate), is having landlord troubles. Le Pavilion's landlord: Columbia Pictures, which wants Pavillowner Henri Soule (rhymes with souffle) to cough up more rent than the piddling $16,500-a-year he now pays. The trouble began, went one version, when Columbia's President Harry Cohn drifted into Le Pavilion...
...Times Sunday Magazine who joined the paper in 1952, also fought shy of naming onetime Communist associates, while he admitted his own party membership from 1935 to 1949. Like Whitman, he did not claim the refuge of the Fifth Amendment to protect himself against selfincrimination.

Lions v. Wildcats. He went to a conference, cleaned up his mail, made some notes for his monthly TV report, that night went home to dinner, made his telecast and then went to the airport for a flight to Tampa. At take-off time, the governor was missing. A staffer found him in the baggage room, chinning with the porters. In flight, he worked on state papers, read a chapter in a book on Southern economic problems. Next day he made two speeches, talked to some old people basking in the sun and to some Democratic leaders at the hotel...
...altiés today specializes in lively, handsomely illustrated features on art and travel, but also covers a wide range of subjects with a mixture of Gallic verve and American nerve, e.g., it recently sent a staffer on his first trip to Africa to bring back a picture story on "How to Hunt Big Game," commissioned a French explorer to write his story of an Amazon trip, "I Starved with the World's Most Primitive Tribe." The magazine's lavish color pages, planned by Art Editor Albert Gilou, sometimes achieve the lustrous clarity of a Flemish painting...
