...Pepper, however, is a legitimate hunting ground for Beatleologists, and if Tolstoy was right in saying that the key to art is the "wee bit," never was there a more artistic pop album. It is loaded with every significant little touch that the Beatles could fit into three months of recording. Under the same pressure of inspiration that throws other pop groups into violent convulsions, the Beatles remain gentle, ironic, subtle, innocent and, above...
Incongruous as a lemonade stand in Death Valley and just as refreshing, a wee minipark opened on East 53rd Street in Manhattan amidst the jam-packed office buildings, hotels and stores. Donated to the city just for the joy of it by CBS Board Chairman William S. Paley, 65, it is only 42 ft. wide and 100 ft. deep, yet Paley Park offers pooped passers-by a respite at little white tables and chairs in a setting of geraniums, honey locust trees, and a 20-ft. waterfall whose roar all but drowns out the yowl of city traffic.

In the wee hours of the morning, even Walter Ulbricht must admit to himself that his country can only benefit by importing the vastly superior, much more varied products put out by the Germany on the other side of the Wall...
...Maryland's Chevy Chase Club last week, groundkeepers with shovels and brooms were clearing off a 6-in. snowfall from the club's seven raised-platform courts in time for the annual mixed-doubles "scramble." At Darien, Conn.'s Wee Burn Country Club, 3½ in. of drifting snow was being pushed off the courts in preparation for the national championships. And at Brookline, Mass., The Country Club was rushing to completion the first two platform-tennis courts in the club's long history. All this activity must be over and done with before winter ends...
