...paper for 60 department stores, including Bonwit Teller and Lord & Taylor, has designed striped kaftans ($7) and Kabuki slippers ($2) as well as specially treated raincoats ($7.50) and bikinis ($4) that can be worn in the water, last for two to three wearings. Formfit Rogers has gone into underwear with a $3 ensemble consisting of bra, petti-skirt and kerchief. Not to be outdone, Hallmark Cards has just marketed a complete paper party kit: a flower-printed shift with matching cups, plates, place mats, napkins, matches and even invitations. Among other strong sellers are $9 foil shifts and paint...
...Look at me," says the actress, coolly pronouncing her lines. "I move my leg. That's all it is. But I wear [pause] underwear [pause] which moves with me [pause]. It [pause] captures your attention." It does indeed. And so does just about everything that happens in Harold Pinter's Broadway play The Homecoming (TIME, Jan. 13).

Six hours later, he was awakened by "two loud thumps," followed by the insistent clang of the emergency bell. Clad only in underwear and peacoat (he couldn't find his trousers), Hale sped topside-and gasped at what he saw. Lashed by a sudden, severe Great Lakes storm that kicked up 60-m.p.h. winds and 20-ft. waves, the ship was breaking...
Thunder from the Right. Boxing has been Hugh Benbow's love ever since he left home at 15 with $50 pinned to his underwear. Forty fights later, Lightweight Benbow quit the ring to become a businessman, but his affection for the sport remained. He made one fortune in costume jewelry, lost it in the 1946 market crash, made another in Texas oil. Now 63, Benbow is back in boxing as manager and father confessor to Cleveland ("Big Cat") Williams, 33, who on Nov. 14 in Houston will fight Cassius Clay for the heavyweight championship of the world...
