...like the hand of a stopwatch. His toothpick legs must be pampered; he ran seven races in two days last year and pulled a hamstring muscle. Although a chronic worrywart, Patton usually manages to control his worrying. In his crowded schedule there are special times for fretting, just as there are set times to go to classes at the University of Southern California and a set time to be home for dinner (he has a wife and two-year-old daughter). The proof of Patton's iron control under pressure: he has never jumped a starting...

The late President Manuel Roxas refused their demands, unseated seven Congressmen sympathetic to the Huks. The Philippines' fat, hard-driving new President...
...Two-year-old Future has built itself (at $1 a copy in the U.S., $1.20 abroad) a circulation of 20,000. Patterned after FORTUNE and aimed at the managerial class, Future's slick paper and color layouts make it the best dressed among Britain's dowdy magazines. (But its chief competitor, Contact Books, which gets around the government rules by donning stiff covers and calling itself a book, has better writing, a broader editorial outlook...
