...session at the University of Geneva (where less than half the students are Swiss), the new Europeans look alike, regardless of nationality. And they look quite unlike their parents. Middle-aged Germans, with a mixture of pride and apprehension, refer to their long-legged, Levi-clad kids as "our young Americans." It is an apt description; today, for the first time in Europe's history, young Europeans, like young Americans, have a continent for a playground and the money in their pockets to explore and enjoy...
...where Nasser's propagandists worked day and night defaming Kassem, Moslem divines solemnly denounced the Iraqi Premier, and a procession of thousands of students and workers trooped behind a symbolic coffin mourning "the martyrs of Arabism who fell dead from bullets of treacherous, criminal Kassem." In Jordan, where young King Hussein has been half-reconciled to Nasser by Kassem's involvement with the Communists, the state radio broadcast an appeal to all Arabs to "protect Iraq from Communist gangs."

In any event, the tots have plenty of time to get to know each other: if they do marry, it will not be for years...
...fought a duel with ostrich feathers to the music of Claire de Lune. Minerva the black panther (Callas) appeared in a red wig to music from Weber's Der Freischutz and devoured a chesty white dove (Tebaldi). Casarosa the old sheepdog (Rubi Rubirosa) pounced on two young things to Mendelssohn's Fingal's Cave Overture, fainted dead away while Ringmaster Max explained: "Casarosa isn't as young as he thinks he is.'' In a mad finale, the "God of the Press" arrived in a thunderclap to terrify the revolting animals into submission. Corriere Delia...
