A scrambled astrological page presents sun signs Aries through Capricorn with varied advisories. Messages warn of stress on nerves and health for Taurus, urge caution about impulsive actions for Gemini, and suggest steady focus for Virgo and Cancer. Readers are advised to avoid fights, manage relationships, and stay attentive to opportunities, with several signs noting month spread and personal conduct.
Earl Wilson reviews a 20 000 mile South American tramp with jokes about steak roquefort in Ciudad Trujillo and Varig Airlines menus planned in New York. He mentions Porfirio Rubirosa Doris Hayes Zsa Zsa Gabor Marilyn Monroe and other stars with chaos at Kutsher’s Club.
The article recounts Oswald Jacoby and Lee Downer discussing a bridge hand. Downer analyzes the play from the dummy, anticipating spades and hearts, counting tricks, and aiming for a top score rather than an average one. The narrative ends with a successful run of tricks after a cautious overcall and a duck.
A breezy 20th century gender column argues the sexes are converging in habits and privileges. It claims women possess an inner resource that keeps them ahead, notes a new cultural pattern blurring masculine and feminine roles, and ends with a light comparison of luck and fate between men and women.
A fragment discusses perception of ease in life, student problems, and a rural pastor’s family troubles. It cites Paul Glick’s analysis of US Census data noting earlier marriages now rising, with many brides under 23 and a shift from turn‑of‑the‑century patterns. It contrasts now with men’s older marriage ages.
A garbled compilation quotes Eisenhower on the school bill defeat, Bailey criticizing blame, Billy Graken on teenagers, Judge Groff scolding a youth, Senator Walter George praised, and Nixon remarking on 1958 House and Senate elections. The blend of opinions shows mixed reactions to political figures and upcoming races.
A quirky item notes that Los Anglers have nearly double the number of automobiles compared with all of South America. It adds that young trees survive better when planted in spring. It also explains the horseshoe crab is not a crab but a distant relative of spiders and scorpions.
