Then last week the A.P. sent out the captioned picture below showing Miss Paik of Pyongyang, sergeant in the Communist "Reception Personnel", with a copy of TIME'S July 23 issue opened to the story about her. "Pert in an olive jacket and blue skirt" (as the story described her), she had said that she wanted a unified Korea, then discreetly smiled off a question about who should run it.
