Gone too is any thought they might give to their fox-trotting elders, who haven't learned a new step since the Big Apple was a big deal. The paunchy, balding fellows that Artist THORNTON UTZ has put along the sidelines may be able to cut a rug, but do it in a way that cuts no ice with the kids. These reluctant wallflowers have come out with their wives to recapture their youth, and what happens? They've never felt so old . . . or so paunchy and balding. Next time they want to relive the good old days, they'll doubtless spend the evening chair-borne, talking about them. ARTICLES: Hospitalized at Home, by Ruth and Edward Brecher.

HOSPITALIZED AT HOME: When a mother of three has to spend weeks in the hospital, worry about her family may delay her recovery. Now an insured home-care plan, almost as revolutionary as Blue Cross itself, shortens her stay . . . and saves money for patient and hospital alike. FIRE PILOTS:Risking death from searing flames, treacherous air currents, and "pitch-up" caused by dropping heavy loads, they fight forest fires by bombing them with borate and water. A doctor who prescribes a sleeping pill, a cup of cocoa and a tunafish sandwich is hooked, as firmly as the tuna once was, by The Girl With a Shiner (page 22). "You left me nothing but a little torn bit of loving, hating, thinking free mind. And that is more than enough to kill you with" (I Will Not Talk, page 42). While his grandfather dozes, Hollister Kemp the Second makes a deal for a piece of San Francisco (A Grandfather's Gift.) DEFENSE MONEY IS NOT WASTED: A former Air Force Chief of Staff tells the real story behind a much-publicized military blooper and reveals the true achievements of Pentagon management (Speaking Out).
