...Cleveland newspapers so inflame Dr. Sam Sheppard's jurors that he was wrongly convicted of bludgeoning his wife to death? No one has ever proved that the press actually swayed the jurors who found the osteopath guilty in 1954 and sent him to prison for life. But last week, upholding Sheppard's bid for habeas corpus, the Supreme Court said that "inherently prejudicial publicity" was proof enough that he "did not receive a fair trial consistent with the due process clause of the 14th Amendment."

Even men are abandoning their traditional drabness; tuxedo jackets now come in cerise, vests may be flowered. The New York Herald Tribune's Eugenia Sheppard points out that "vulgar" is no longer a nasty word. "For the last few years there hasn't been an all-out new and exciting fashion that hasn't been just a little vulgar," she says, and quotes an interior decorator to the effect that "there is nothing...
