While looking at the cover picture, I wondered where I had seen this charming face before. And all of a sudden, I knew: it reminded me of the face of Regelindis, a statue in the famous Cathedral of Naumburg Saale, now in East Germany, made by an unknown sculptor 700 years ago. Isn't it all there...
...sudden, it seemed, the much-talked-of "peaceful coexistence" was busting out all over. In the U.S.S.R. last week, Pravda displayed a photograph of President Eisenhower and Vice President Nixon in a smiling huddle with First Deputy Premier Frol Kozlov at the opening of the Soviet fair at the New York Coliseum.

...there are times when even The Clan cannot keep Shirley going, when she withdraws into a corner to stare at the wall or struggle with sudden tears, The Clan accepts this, too. Her sudden shifts of mood and attention are as striking offscreen as on. The core of her life, she insists, is her family, her Japan-based husband Steve Parker and her two-year-old daughter Stephanie. Friends still remember with a kind of awed surprise the evening she brought Steffie to a party, stuck the child in a wicker basket and put her in a closet to sleep...
