Back to the Burglar. In the first game of the Series last week, all the heroes belonged to St. Louis. On to pitch came Veteran Righthander Bob Gibson, 31, twice victor over the New York Yan kees in the 1964 World Series, twice a 20-game winner, and well on his way to another big season before a line drive broke his left leg last July.

...always, spring training wound up with a flurry of activity. To cement their porous infield, the New York Yan kees purchased Dodger John Kennedy, who made only eight errors in 125 games last year; Kennedy committed two booboos in his first game for the Yanks.

De Gaulle recognized Red China despite U.S. disapproval; he more or less rules the Common Market and all but ignores NATO. He is, in fact, a sort of "respectable Castro" to many Latinos.

...legendary ceremony at the capital city of Gangtok (TIME, March 23). Last week, when the crown prince's 70-year-old father, Maharajah Sir Tashi Namgyal, died of cancer in a Calcutta nursing home, Hope and her husband mounted the throne of the mountain-locked Himala yan kingdom. The formal coronation will take place after one year's mourning, the precise date to be calculated by the court astrologers...
