...Saturdays to watch him play. In Bobby's heyday as the grand inquisitor of the Senate McClellan committee, when he was making Jimmy Hoffa squirm, the clan became totally absorbed in the investigation, discussed it over every dinner table and every long-distance telephone call and beat a path to the white marble Senate Caucus Room. Even the in-laws are not immune to the sudden fevers: Bobby's wife Ethel, often accompanied by two or three of her older children, was a daily onlooker at the hearings last summer, well into the seventh month of her seventh...
Last week North Carolina's voters held to their traditionally independent path, gave Sanford a 77,000-plus majority and a clear mandate for moderation as the state's next Governor. Sanford, manager of the late, liberal Senator Kerr Scott's successful campaign in 1954, had painstakingly built the smoothest county-by-county organization seen in three decades. Endorsed by most of the state's newspapers, he appealed to city folk and labor unions as a protector of the public schools ("We need massive intelligence, not massive resistance"), attracted Piedmont bankers and textile manufacturers with...
...short, happy life as heavyweight champ, Ingemar Johansson (see SPORT) found U.S. advertisers beating a path to his throne with blank checks and myriad products for him to endorse-everything from Pioneer key rings to Man-Tan and Lord West tuxedos.

Campbell found that his green tin hat, with "TIME-LIFE" in white letters on front, proved to be a passport.

From a rooftop vantage point in Premier Kishi's compound, which was conveniently across the street from the Diet, Campbell had a bird's-eye view of the major fighting-when not ducking flying rocks and spurting...
...summer's afternoon nine years ago, a Cadillac careened at high speed past a stop sign onto a highway in suburban Philadelphia, directly in the path of a huge trailer truck. The driver of the car-Albert Coombs Barnes, multimillionaire, eccentric and owner of one of the world's greatest collections of modern art-died instantly. When the news of Barnes's violent end reached him, Henri Marceau, curator of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, had an awed comment: "How natural." Long before his death, Albert Barnes's fabulous collection of French and American modern...
