Housewife author Peyton Place may stun publishing world
Grace Metalious, a 32 year old married teacher’s wife with no writing lessons, may become a literary sensation with her first novel Peyton Place. Her husband, a school principal, has already lost his job over unresolved issues, though officials deny linkage to the book. The book, a frank composite of small town life, follows hidden vices and romances beneath a placid New England surface.

Some Areas Get Relief From Heat
A heat relief pattern shows cooler air over the Northern and Central Plains easing humidity in northern Texas while thunderstorms fire along a band from central Minnesota to New York and southern New England. Most of the country remains dry except for a few showers and gusty winds in the Rockies and Mississippi Valley with a humid Atlantic coastal flow keeping some areas damp overnight.
