...usual fashion of making martyrs out of men who are traitors in their own country, Soviet Russia last month issued a postage stamp honoring Greek Communist Leader Emmanuel Glezos, 37, recently convicted in Greece for spying against his own country (TIME, Aug. 3). To the U.S.S.R.'s Ambassador Mikhail Sergeev, Greece angrily protested the issuance of the stamp. But Moscow replied that it had no responsibility in the matter, since the stamp was issued by the "independent" postal authorities of the U.S.S.R.

Dietzel v. Vaught. But from the start, young Perry Lee seemed to listen most respectfully to two top men of the tough Southeastern Conference: Louisiana State's blond, boyish Paul Dietzel, coach of last season's national champions, and Mississippi's canny, reticent Johnny Vaught, coach of this season's second-ranking team. Each man had an ally in Natchez. Boosting Dietzel and L.S.U. was Orthopedic Surgeon Jack Phillips, an L.S.U. alumnus (and former football manager), who took Perry Lee to L.S.U. games, assiduously cultivated the elder Dunns, once even helped Mrs. Dunn take...
