Autos Close. Best in the "Pet Foods and Products" group, for example, was the Gaines Gravy Train gasser, where all those little ducklings eat out of the same bowl with a Great Dane. Polaroid's little boy with the trumpet, playing Minuet in G while his daddy snaps his picture, was tops in "Gifts, Cameras, Watches." The competition in the "Auto Accessories" classification was fantastically close and exciting. Goodyear's frustrated commuter, with his summer treads spinning in a snowdrift, just edged out Purolator Oil Filter's Moonlight Ride-the one with the terrific looking girl...

...year-old boy in Somerville, Mass., extended his right arm last week and shook hands with a visitor. What made the event news was that exactly one year ago, red-haired Everett Knowles Jr. had his arm completely severed when a freight train threw him against a bridge abutment.

...Navy. As versatile as any are the Navy's SEALS, who must be underwater demolition experts, parachutists, land survival specialists and, after a fashion, submariners. Two mothballed troop-carrying subs have been reactivated for use by SEALS, who are skilled at making landings from them. The SEALS are trained, for example, to parachute behind enemy lines to locate downed flyers, lead them to the coast, then hustle them aboard a recovery sub.
