Fountains of Concrete. Back in the U.S., Lundy settled in Sarasota hard by a rival Harvard classmate and fellow prizewinner, Paul Rudolph (TIME color, Feb. 1). In the scramble for commissions, Lundy made his reputation when he designed a handsome drive-in church for as little as $35,000 by using laminated southern pine. He proved equally adept at designing commercial structures. A flower-shaped furniture showroom in laminated redwood pulled business right off the highway. His Warm Mineral Springs Inn, sheltered by 75 overlapping concrete shells suggestive of the nearby tourist-touted "Fountain of Youth," was such a successful...

...country lawyer from Prestonsburg (pop. 3,585) with a way-down-yonder drawl, was elected last year over a handpicked Chandler candidate. A shy, retiring sort of man, he seemed likely to be overshadowed by 1) powerful former U.S. Senator Earle C. Clements, who had backed Combs against the rival Chandler faction, and 2) smart, persuasive Lieutenant Governor Wilson Wyatt, onetime (1941-45) mayor of Louisville and U.S. housing expediter in 1946 under Truman. But from the beginning, Combs worked smoothly with Wyatt, and he quickly let Clements know who was boss. At his first cabinet meeting, Combs listened politely...

Late Recognition. After weeks of muted weekend campaigning, Hubert Humphrey started moving fast in Wisconsin, even crossed paths briefly with Rival Kennedy at the Intonville Airport. Shaking hands at a Kenosha factory gate, Humphrey was delighted to discover that more and more people were recognizing him. In the midst of his rising enthusiasm, the buoyant Humphrey still had pensive moments. After an overtime session of handshaking with deaf children at a school in Delavan, he was asked why he spent so much time with nonvoters. Replied Humphrey: "I guess it's because Jack's got a feeling...

When a doctor writes a prescription, he may use either the general chemical name of the drug or the trademarked brand name of some particular manufacturer. The brand-named items usually cost more. Congressional investigators and drug manufacturers who recently debated the merits of the rival methods reached no conclusion. But Connecticut's state welfare department last week took positive action. It issued a list of the 25 trade-named drugs (see box) most commonly prescribed for welfare recipients, and ordered doctors to prescribe by general name "whenever possible." Said Governor Abraham Ribicoff: "The state is not going...

...herself with a respectable twelfth in both the downhill and giant slalom. But right from the start of the slalom, Anne put the pressure on Penny, darted through the first steep, 53-gate course in a blazing time of 54 sec. that put her first and left her U.S. rival dangling in seventh place. Nor did Anne let up on the second course, finishing in 55.6 sec. Hell-bent to save her glory, Penny fell and bumped far down the slope on the seat of her pants. Penny ended up a dejected 33rd, and cool Anne Heggtveit was F.I.S. champion...
