...could be excused for not making the effort. But for Joseph Kennedy, 75, effort has always been worthwhile. Last week the former Ambassador to Britain had recovered sufficiently from his 1961 stroke to walk slowly under his own power into Manhattan's Caravelle restaurant for dinner. A wooden cane helped, and so did his niece and constant companion, Ann Gargan, but the fact remained that he can walk across a room. He can also rise from a chair using just the cane, and his speech is showing improvement. Now in Hyannis Port, he has spent the last three weeks...
...Indianapolis children's zoo contains a Japanese garden, with pagoda, pool and bridge, in which a collection of Japanese wildlife run free; a miniature train tours the grounds behind a replica of an 1863 locomotive; a walk-in whale has an aquarium in his stomach; there is an underwater glass panel for viewing submarine life and an underground panel to watch burrowing animals at work.

Obviously, the movie makes a negligible contribution to world amity and understanding, despite such gimmicks as a walk-on role by U.N. Ambassador Adlai Stevenson. Stooped, sage and sober, the ambassador looks like a man who knows the U.N. will survive even this sad Affair...
...means of finally drawing a sizable group of faculty to the 'Cliffe. These offices will probably be given to younger faculty who are connected in some way--perhaps as tutors or advisers--with Radcliffe. Predicting the effects of this provision, Mrs. Bunting observes: "You would never expect to walk into the library now and stop to talk with a faculty member; but in the new Center, it will be a common occurrence...
