Face to Face. So much for the public posturing. Behind the scenes, more substantive negotiations are under way-and peace in the Middle East may be a few inches closer than it has sometimes seemed. The negotiations grew out of the face-to-face meeting four months ago between Jordan's King Hussein and Israel's Deputy Premier Yigal Allon in a parked automobile on the border between the two nations (TIME, Nov. 23). Since then, subordinates have held as many as half a dozen meetings, out of which have come the outlines of a possible settlement. Jordan...
...Though Joan Miró is now 75, the freshness and fascination with which his blue eyes see the world around him have not changed. For 60 years, he has been painting these forms-sun, moon, star, woman, man, birds, flowers, sparks. Of course he paints them in his own way-and they are instantly recognized the world over. Though he insists that he only draws what he sees, his images are usually a surreal shorthand.

If the elections work that way-and it is admittedly a big if-they could shape Viet Nam's future more effectively than a host of regiments...
Among these rivals, none has come back more dramatically from its dark days than TWA. It came the hard way-and by a circuitous route. TWA is one of the oldest and proudest of U.S. airlines. Yet only five years ago, the company seemed to be in a fatal dive. It was de moralized, litigation-lamed, and desperately short of the jets by then necessary to stay alive. TWA went into the red by no less than $38.7 million in 1961. Yet that same year, two happy things happened. First, the capricious hand of Billionaire Howard Hughes was lifted from...
