Terrorist bombs rocked Argentina last week, producing a crisis somewhat more serious than the many others President Arturo Frondizi has faced in his two-year regime. After TNT blasted an army intelligence major's home and killed his three-year-old daughter, Frondizi declared a state of "internal war"; police dragnets swept through the capital at night to knock on 1,400 doors and haul off 250 followers of ousted Dictator Juan Peron.

...visiting Prime Minister Harold Macmillan made his way through the Union of South Africa, allowed to meet none of the blacks (who make up 67% of the population), he could sense the mood of the country from the headlines.

Nashua's first get, frisky two-year-olds, are training now at Hialeah side by side with those of Swaps, the great California horse that beat Nashua in the 1955 Kentucky Derby. But Mr. Fitz last week had eyes only for the Wheatley Stable's three-year-old Progressing, a capricious colt getting ready to run his first race of the season...
Biggest seller among the high-priced toys is a $30, bright-eyed, 3-ft.-tall plastic doll built like a three-year-old girl. The Ideal Toy Corp.'s Patti Play Pal has surprised even its makers, who shipped 500,000 dolls, found her copied by at least six other makers selling their versions for as low as $7.99. The first big doll to really catch on, Patti owes her success to the industry's ability to make her light in weight (4¾Ibs.) and so lifelike that she can wear her owner's clothes. Other...
