...relationship with 36-year-old German Playgirl Gerda Munsinger, then Diefenbaker could find himself on the way out as opposition leader. If Pearson does not make his case, he might be the one to go. Last week, after five days of public hearings before Supreme Court Justice Wishart Spence, Diefenbaker was clearly the man on the spot...
...more than a month, Canada's celebrated "Munsinger Affair" (TIME, March 25) had been the talk of the country. Last week it moved into the courtroom, as public hearings opened under Supreme Court Justice Wishart Flett Spence, 62. They would try to determine whether there had been a national security leak in the friendship of 36-year-old German Party Girl Gerda Munsinger with ministers of the former Conservative government.

Prime Minister Lester Pearson last week temporarily put the lid back on what, after two weeks of national uproar, has been nicknamed "The Mudslinger Affair."

Its computers help machines run other machines in dozens of U.S. plants. But Honeywell lags far behind front-running IBM and is still losing money on its computer operation-while...
Hard-Riding Polo. Over the next three years, Chairman Wishart will gradually step aside for lean, taciturn James Binger, a onetime lawyer who went into manufacturing because "I wanted to develop my own set of problems to solve." A Yaleman ('38) who plays hard-riding polo on weekends to shuck off the burden of bringing home a full briefcase every night, Binger has already revamped Honeywell's sales approach, placing emphasis on profits rather than on volume. Now he is stepping up international sales (the company has plants in six countries), which so far account...
