MILTON ALLEN, 20, a lanky guitarist out of Houston who represents RCA Victor's latest bid for the rocking teen-age market. A panting, heavy-dew singer, Milton was spotted by RCA fieldmen while he was stomping it out on local Houston radio shows. He was hustled to New York, shorn of his Elvis Presley locks, fitted into a grey flannel suit and photographed in Central Park, looking sincere.

Kohler, Wisconsin's three-term former governor, was the narrow victor last month in a bitter, seven-man G.O.P. primary (TIME, Aug. 12).

To make himself even easier to follow, Howard drags along with him a red herring called Anita Ekberg. And he goes on a real Crook's Tour-from Manhattan to a kaleidoscopic blur of bars, boudoirs and bawdy hotels in London, Rome, Naples and Athens-all genuine-location stuff, reeled off at such a frenzied pace that...
