...briefing on orbital and moon-flight tactics from the Mercury astronauts, wound up the Texas phase of his trip with a ringing pep talk to 50.000 people at Rice University Stadium. Said the President: "Those who came before us made certain that this country rode the first waves of the Industrial Revolution, the first waves of modern invention and the first wave of nuclear power, and this generation does not intend to flounder in the backwash of the coming age of space. We mean to be a part of it. We have vowed that we shall not see it governed...
Such was the scene last week at a session of Tacuara, a shadowy society of young terrorists who lead a wave of neo-Nazism that is rising in Argentina. Though still minuscule in a nation of 21 million, Tacuara has grown in four years from a handful of fanatics to an estimated 4,000 members.

Hands-Off Orders. After this bold foray last week, Havana radio called the attacker a "pirate vessel" manned by "criminals armed and paid by the U.S." Cried Castro himself over his powerful short-wave propaganda station: "We no longer have to bother ourselves proving the aggressive intentions of the Yankee imperialists.

Cheered the Daily Mail: "The Soblen story is that of one sick man against the world-and so far he has beaten the world. Mr. Brooke has been running about to please...
Nature is rarely so expensive; Adrian's new hair pieces cost anywhere from $75 for a readymade, solid-color version to the custom-made, many-splendored thing at $500. Adrian (real name: René A. Caricari), who claims to have invented the side wave, the wing wave, the beehive and the Psyche look, will put his hair pieces on view next week for the first time (atop mannequins in Saks's Manhattan windows). He steadily insists that they are more than a passing fancy. "The look for this fall, and next year too, is pure elegance," he says...
