Married. Deborah Kerr, 38, Scottish-born cinemactress (From Here to Eternity, Tea and Sympathy); and Peter Viertel, 40, Austrian-born screenwriter (The Sun Also Rises, African Queen); she for the second time, he for the third (her first: British TV Producer Anthony Bartley; his first: French Fashion Model Bettina); in Klosters, Switzerland...
Reverse Pump. The most widely accepted model, developed by Sweden's Dr. Tage Malmstrom, consists of a metal cup with a rubber hose (part of which serves as a handle) leading to an ordinary bicycle pump with a reverse valve so that it pumps air out instead of in. Drs. James A. Chalmers and Roger J. Fothergill, in the British Medical Journal, report use of the gadget in 100 cases at Worcester. The metal cup is inserted in the opening of the birth canal and applied to the baby's skull. Pressure is reduced to half an atmosphere...
...Menderes government. The land is now filled with wheat and grazing sheep.

Ariel being half angel and Caliban half beast, the two constitute the termini of Shakespeare's world of humans. Clayton Corzatte, new to the company, is a model Ariel. He is lithe and clean, with an appositely light and attractive tenor voice (for both speech and song). His nimble and graceful movement, unprecedented on this stage, deserves no less a term than choreography; he performs the notable trick of being delicate and sprightly without ever becoming effeminate...
