You are there. And listening. First you hear the deep, professional speaker's voice of the small man. Then you hear a voice slightly nasal in character, higher in timbre

and earnest in delivery. It belongs to the tall man. Here in Illinois, in the exciting summer of 1858, the two men are engaged in a series of facc-to-face debates on the issue that

threatens to tear a young nation asunder. The small man is

Stephen Arnold Douglas, a transplanted easterner. He is The Little Giant and his mane of black hair ripples as if in some wind-swept forest when he nods his head vigorously

to punctuate his points. Abraham Lincoln is the other one. Honest Abe. Abe, The Giant Killer. He stands tall as a pine in his rusty boots and his tousled shock of hair hides a mind that will propel him from here to Forever, to immor- tality and beyond.

The debates ended in a standoff, with the rapier thrusts of the intellectual blunted by country common sense. Lincoln lost the election for U.S. Senator and—compared himself to the small boy who stubbed his toe "It hurts too bad to laugh and I'm too big to cry." The people, not too big

to cry, called him to Washington in 1 860 where he became

our 1 6th President and a man for the ages.

It could have happened in Salis- bury three years ago. when Ne- gro students threatened to hold a demonstration unless three lunch counters were desegregated. On the last day of their deadline, the counters complied. The more my- opic citizens sighed v ilh relief. But not the white leaders. "M knew they were just feeling us out." says one. "So a few of us met the mayor for lunch and when «e came out wc had our biracial commission." The commission had trouble at

(irst finding out exactly what the Negroes wanted. "Often the Ne- gro will tell a white only what he wants to hear." says one member.

The list tliey linally got was not long: the right to enter public places, and better jobs. "Letting us go into a restaurant isn"t enough." said a Negro. "We want to be able to alTord to go there." Then the commission put pres- sure on the tow n to accept the demands. It resorted to scare tactics — by warning v.hat would happen if there were violence. A few mem- bers with inlluence in the banks had an economic weapon. "Wc would never actually deny anyone a loan who did not cooperate." says one leader, "but when youVe talking from the seat of power the other fellow can"t help but think about it." The local priest used a bit of power, too. When a diehard restaurant owner—who was a Cath- olic — refused to desegregate. Mon- signor Stout went to see him. "I told him he had to do it." he reported, "and he did." No one in Salisbury believes everything is solved. There is a young Negro extremist in town now. trying to make things go even faster. And another Negro leader —once among the most forceful — feels that the new Negro aggressiveness sweeping the country is going too fast and getting out of control. "She"s got everything she wants." says a white colleague, "/.nd she doesn't want us to go any further." Integration in Salisbury has not changed anyone's attitude toward his fellow man. The whites make it clear they are sacrificing segregation to preserve everything else.

It is a matter of common sense. nt>t brotherhood. As one leader on the commission puts it. "There are no bleeding hearts among us." Michael Durham

Beanball my men?

Upset by a series of losses last week. Manajier Alvin Dark of the San Francisco Giants swung out at one of basebalTs most hallowed institutions —the beanball. He did have provocation.

What made Dark mad was the injustice of penalizing this right- eous retaliation. He recognizes the uses of the beanball and knows that opposing pitchers harbor no rancor toward his team. The truth

is that few beanballs arc throw n in malice, and even fewer are aimed at the bean. Some pitchers, for instance, like to sight in on Mickey Mantle's legs, just to remind him of his tender knees. Most pitchers don't aim to hit the batter at all. Or at least they e.x.icet him to duck. But the near-miss pitches the "knockdown." "duster" and "brushback" —areas much a part of the pitcher's repertoire as his fastball and curve. They keep a batter from planting himself for the big hit and they keep his mind on survival instead of on the ball game. Last year, 709 major league baiters were hit.

Even after an autopsy the doctors do not know why Sis- mour's transplant failed. But one thing is surely involved: the body's immune reaction which attacks and rejects any foreign tissue. To transplant an organ, doctors have to knock down this immune reaction. In Sismour they must have knocked down his immunity to germs as well. At the same time the doctors may not have reduced his immunity enough and his body started rejecting the lung. They arc making intricate studies to find out exactly what did happen, for immunity poses the basic obstacle in the light to perfect transplanting.

President Johnson, but she is still as starry- eyed about the capital as she was when she first saw it as a child. Her second visit, when she was 1 7, marked a heady political triumph of her own. She had been elected governor of the Oklahoma Girls' State. Arriving in Washington with the other girl governors, she was chosen president of the whole Girls' Nation. "I thought then thai the most tremendous thing in the world would be to live here and play some small part in this great government of ours."

made in this country, every generation of millionaires has succumbed to Saratoga's lure. They came to Saratoga in August—not just to keep up with the Belmcmts and Whitneys but

to strut out in front of them. This August, -Saratoga celebrates the cen-

tennial of the beginning of its gaiety—a beginning which came at a most inappropriate time. One month after (".ettysburg. with the
