...little impact on the reader. And yet the apparent thinness and elusiveness of the character are reasonable enough in the context of the play. As the curtain rises. Mr. Arcularis lies on the operating table in a surgical amphitheater, surrounded by doctors and nurses and watched by unseen medical students. Then Mr. Arcularis drifts into his ether dream, a strange, cold, ocean voyage which makes up the heart of the play. Finally in the growing chill and the gradual slowing of the ships engines the scene returns to the operating room and the death of Mr. Arcularis...

...triumphant; she had come to pick up the New York Film Critics' "best actress" award for her excellent performance in the title role of Anastasia (TIME, Dec. 17). Not there to meet her: Ingrid's daughter Jennie Ann Lindstrom, 18, a University of Colorado freshman, unseen by her mother since 1951.

...white nylon canopy in gale-swept northern England. "All of us here," she said in her girlish voice, "know we are present at the making of history . . . It is with pride that I open Calder Hall, Britain's first atomic power station."
