There were talks of substance, but the substance was far overshadowed by the socializing. Kosygin, who was accompanied by his daughter, Mrs. Liudmila Gvishiani, 38, and his 19-yearold grandson Aleksei, took the entire first floor at Claridge's, from whose haughty marquee flew the hammer and sickle. He dined at 10 Downing Street with Prime Minister Wilson, who welcomed him as "an old friend, a statesman I personally know to be cool and wise in his judgment, warm in his heart." He met with Britain's top capitalists at the Hyde Park Hotel, mingled with the likes...
...famous citizens, he is also a Nisei and therefore still partly an outsider. His real estate broker told him. "I can't get you a house in either suburb. Yama. But I know of a fine old farmhouse in Troy which you can have." Yamasaki liked the 136-yearold farmhouse, and he lives there to this day with his mother and his blonde second wife Peggy (he and Teruko were divorced two years ago). He has landscaped his 15 acres, surrounded his house with Japanese-style gardens and patios, and supplied it with a deep Japanese-style bathtub...
Jane's successor was Patti, an 18-yearold supposed to be a sample of Britain's youth. But Patti, less prone than Jane to losing all but her lingerie, never caught Britain's fancy, and the Mirror sent her packing five months ago.

"Her fundamental attributes," said one Mirror man demurely, "are always covered by a towel." Occasionally the towel is about the size of an un-Sanforized dishcloth. Britons...
...Many Sides. With occasionally effective theatrical moments, the play is strung out in pageant-caliber tableaux, beginning with the moment when 22-yearold Martin Luther was received into the order of Augustinian Eremites in Erfurt. Subsequently he is shown on the day he has significant difficulty saying his first Mass; he wrangles with his father, confers with his friend and guide, Johann von Staupitz, nails up his 95 theses on the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, speaks forcefully to Cardinal Cajetan, the papal legate, and so on, until in the end he symbolically holds his young child...
Swelling Classes. It was about time. As colleges across the nation are learning, the state of English composition in most U.S. schools is deplorable. A British 14-yearold is often less creative than his U.S. counterpart, but his writing is notably superior. He can often outwrite the average U.S. college freshman, as several studies have proved. He can do so because he practices day after day. U.S. colleges have freshmen who never wrote a single theme in four years of high school...
