...pitchers walk him more than once a game on the average. Says Cleveland's Lane: "I still hate the s.o.b. when he gets up there at the plate. He could bunt .300, he has power to left and right, and he still has a good arm." Still a blur on the base paths despite his knee (he has stolen six bases in six tries this year), Mantle leads the majors in runs scored, with 51. Last week Mantle was red hot, led the Yanks to a four-game sweep of Chicago, their 13th victory in 15 games...
Like hundreds of other U.S. towns, Deerfield has become an unwilling part of a supersonic age. Jets from Westover Air Force Base, 25 miles to the south, blur past overhead-and lower the sonic boom on peaceful Deerfield. "Why can't they go out over the ocean if they want to break the sound barrier?" asks a local schoolteacher. His complaint is as familiar on the West Coast as on the East.

To the frantic rhythms of Khachaturian's Saber Dance, the three Gratchevs flung whole tribes of Indian clubs at one another while wobbling on a rope strung between two swaying wooden poles...

And when he slaps one of his lefthanded shots, the puck is a black blur that can twist the goalie's thick ash stick in his hand...
...areas of the Philippines, from the mountain villages of the north to the Moslem country of the south. The dances were as varied as the Arabic, Malayan and Spanish ethnic influences that formed them: a Bontoc war dance had loinclothed dancers running and bounding about in a blur of flailing shields and spears; a wedding-party dance had a suggestion of Spain in the gentle sway of hip and shoulder. In one of the evening's high points the company performed a traditional pole dance, stepping with unhurried grace through a grid of clashing poles clapped together...
