...late Aga Khan, spiritual leader of 20 million Moslems of the Ismaili sect, forced him to give up two hazardous pastimes: steeplechase riding and auto racing. But Aly continued his pursuit of speed and danger: three skiing accidents nearly cost him a leg; when he was only 21, and without a pilot's license, he took his turn at the controls of a light plane in an unprecedented 10,000-mile flight from Bombay to Singapore and back. Aly Khan slew quantities of lions, tigers and water buffalo, but always on foot and never from the safety...
...months Diario and Editor Jose Ignacio Rivero, 39, had been living on borrowed time as they blasted Castro's arbitrary rent reductions, his agrarian farm laws ("Hundreds of people have had their property taken away without compensation"), his flirtation with Communism. Boldly the newspaper spoke out for "democratic normalcy and the law. Is this a crime? Is it immoral? Are there not a lot of Cuban people who want the same?"

...worldwide revolution of another kind. In France and Poland, a band of gifted and dedicated young moviemakers, inspired by the example of Italy's neo-realists and Sweden's Ingmar Bergman, plunged into a daring and promising renovation of the art of film. Working on tiny budgets without benefit of studio facilities or well-known actors, the men of the Nouvelle Vague (TIME, Nov. 16) in a single year produced at least three pictures-Black Orpheus, The 400 Blows, Hiroshima, Mon Amour-of rare originality and power. And to the amazement of the moneymen, the European public took...
...piece of sculpture he ever exhibited, but 25 years passed before he could afford to have it cast in bronze. Yet Robus never lost his humor. He himself would refer to his graceful sculpture of a girl washing her hair as Soap in Her Eyes. He did Three Caryatids Without a Portico, a Water Carrier with a pitcher for a head ("Just a jughead, I guess"), and "a vase that takes its head off." Hugo Robus' figures have a fluid charm that makes them bend to unheard melodies and swirl to soundless rhythms. But only in the last five...
