...talks at 3 p.m. But twelve hours later, there was only a bleak deadlock. The issue: Which of them should take top power and responsibility? Sleepless Jack Peurifoy learned in alarm of the impasse and caught a plane to San Salvador. Looking like a dashing sportsman in a green Tyrolean hat and checked jacket, he talked separately with Monzón and Castillo Armas (whom he met there for the first time), then brought them together. He hammered home the idea that the good of Guatemala demanded a compromise. The proud colonels began to give ground...
...Senate this week came Edward David (Ted) Crippa, 55, of Rock Springs. Wyo., a lean, eager merchant, banker and auto-dealer whose father was born in the Tyrolean Alps. Appointed by Wyoming's Republican Governor C. J.

For what Bemelmans calls the cosmopolitan "sleeping-pill set," he created a magical ideal...
...Bemelmans tells it, his present state of ease is a great surprise to him. The grandson of a Bavarian brewer, he showed early signs of being the family flop. He never managed to get through school, failed miserably as an apprentice in his Uncle Hans's string of Tyrolean hotels. Finally, in desperation, his family sent him to the U.S., and there he started failing all over again...
