...blast reportedly came from the leaders of none-too-sizeable Communist parties in four Latin American countries-Venezuela, Colombia, Uruguay and Chile-as well as from Albania, Indonesia and North Korea. Some delegations apparently split-e.g., Argentina's intellectual Communist wing leaned to Liu, while its old-line trade unionists backed Moscow. At least one delegation played it down the middle: East Germany's Walter Ulbricht professed devotion to Khrushchev but wanted a tougher policy on Berlin...
Somewhere amid the onion domes of Moscow last week the leaders of 80-odd Communist parties from all over the world were apparently locked in titanic struggle. After two solid weeks of argument, the supreme junta of world Communism was still threshing out the grand party line. Either way, it still meant to sweep the world, but Mao Tse-tung was arguing for more militancy and bellicosity than Nikita Khrushchev thinks necessary...
...Line-Up. For the first time, Western correspondents in Moscow were permitted to refer openly in their dispatches to the Russian-Chinese quarrel, were even allowed to quote "well-informed" sources on the line-up of forces within the Red summit meeting.

The wedding is slated for just before Christmas, in San Francisco...
They are the dashing, derring-do boys of the National Football League, a tight little elite of halfbacks who survive by speed of foot and wit in a jungle of brute force. Although they may weigh 190 Ibs. or more, they are seldom risked in the crunch of line bucks against wrathful 260-lb. tackles. Instead, they whip downfield for passes, or take a pitchout in full stride to sweep around end. Given a yard or two of maneuvering room, they can break a game wide open by slithering, pirouetting, stutter-stepping and sprinting through a field of tacklers...
