Identity's name apparently has to do with knowing "one's identity with each of life's facets," according to an editorial by Mr. Robinson. But he indicated in an interview yesterday that he didn't plan to have a bug about such philosophical matters as did, for instance, the editors of i.e., The Cambridge Review. I read the editorial on identity backwards and forwards and in the bathtub, and could find no real clue to the riddle of identity. Mr. Robinson comes out on the side of simplicity, I think, and that is praiseworthy. "...Simplicity," he says...
...seldom spoken for publication in his 32 years at G.M., has operated as a financial expert as quietly as he lived-in a modest, middle-class home in Port Washington, Long Island, the type he could buy with about four weeks' salary. Last week, in the first interview since he was named G.M. chairman, Donner spelled out his ideas to TIME Correspondent George Bookman with thin-lipped determination to let people know that he is far more than a mere book balancer, hopes to prove that he is as forceful a personality as his predecessor, Supersalesman Harlow Curtice...

A writer who omits things because he does not know them only makes hollow places in his writing." In Hemingway's "refreshing" Paris Review interview [Aug. 11], he remarked, "I always write on the principle of the iceberg. There is seven-eighths of it under water for every part that shows. Anything you know you can eliminate...
...studio audience, others are found by research, e.g., when a show-packaging firm needed a couple that had just celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary, phone calls to catering services finally found one. Wherever they came from, Diane's victims were first subjected to a deceptively friendly interview. Within minutes she knew whether they had the scrubbed All-American look that goes big on Dotto, or whether they were "up" enough (i.e., extraverts and potential hams) for Haggis Baggis...
