...Sahl thought it not unlikely that, after the playing of The Star-Spangled Banner, Lenny Bernstein would come on-camera to explain it. Introducing "Mom" Walker, chief telephone operator at convention headquarters, Sahl said: "They have good exchanges for a convention-like RUthlessness, BLitz, AVarice and MAchine." Deadline for Treason. Teeth flashing, head characteristically bobbing, muttering "Onward! Onward!" between jokes, Sahl always managed to seem surprised when people laughed. "I'm for capital punishment," he declared bitingly. "You've got to execute people-how else are they going to learn?" The line rivaled his best on birth control...

...head if he blocked their way. In April, when raiding police found a cache of firearms and cement-packed conch shells (obviously intended as missiles) in a Ras Tafarian church, Jamaican authorities decided that the Rev. Claudius Henry was no joke. He was jailed on a charge of treason. Even with their leader in jail, violence broke out into the open last week...

Neuberger, in the Senate)-were in Kennedy's camp. And this, in the Morse code, was nothing less than high treason.

Adnan Menderes, the man who walked bloody but unbroken from a 1959 plane crash that killed fifteen, was not the man to moderate his ways in such an hour. Next day he went on the air to charge the Republicans with virtual treason. The students, he said, had become "tools of conspirators" and "fanatic party followers." He called their demonstrations "plots against the country's security." "They will soon learn," he said in his disarmingly soft voice, "what it means to stand against the state." In the morning, the Premier visited Ankara student dormitories-and got no back talk...

...Paramount). "I did not loave a German," the proud beauty (Silvana Mangano) sneers at a stern chief (Van Heflin) of the Yugoslav partisans. "I loaved a man!" But the partisans aren't having any of that. They have already mutilated the German sergeant (Steve Forrest) Silvana was committing treason with, and they are obviously determined to cut her up too. A grimy partisan approaches her with scissors drawn. Van twists her arms behind her back. Her bosom heaves. A horrible thought flashes across the spectator's mind. Then they cut off her hair...
