These days 'you had better
think twice before promising the
moon.
enOugh, John Vassall,
The story began innocently
then a 30-year-old bachelor
working as a clerk in the naval
attaehe's 011ice at the British
gsubaSay in Koscow, had been
invited out to dinner. His host
was a Pole named 1Viichilsky who
bad dined before with Vassall
and had introduced him to sev-
eral well-educated and socially
charming Russians. This time lie
was introduced, to three more .
"friends" who suggested visiting
a restaurant near the Boishoi
Theater. But instead of taking a
table in the main dining room,
Miehilsky led the way to a prie
rate room upstairs. There, the
five men dined together, then
broke out the brandy bottles.
What happened after that was
spelled out in full detail last
month when Vassall was charged
with violation of Britain's• Offi-
cial Secrets Act and held in cus-
tody for trial later at the Old
Bailey. It seemed a classic ex-
ample of how a government offi-
cial can be blackmailed into
betraying Isis country.
In a statement that prosecutor
Mervyn Griffith-Jones presented
to the court, Vassall allegedly
said; "I was plied with very
strong brandy. Atfer half an
hour, I remember everybody tak-
ing off their jackets. Somebody
assisted me to take off mine, I
remember the lighting being
strong. More of my clothes were
removed. There was a divan in
the corner .. ."
On this divan, Vassall was
photographed "in various com-
promising acts." The next day,
two. Soviet officials showed him
the compromising photographs,
and threatened to expose him if
he did' not become a secret agent.
"They told me," he said, "that
if I mentioned the matter to any-
body at the embassy r would not
be allowed to leave Russia and
they would make an internation-
al incident of it . . . I had no
alternative."
Even so, Vassall, who is the
son of the curate of fashionable
St. James's Church, Piccadilly,
and a wartime RAF photograph-
er, tried at first to palm off in-
nocuous bits of information an
his tormentors. When they again
threatened him, he capitulated
fully,
From mid-1955 to July 1956,
Vassall passed along secret in-
formation and embassy docu-
ments. When transferred home
to the Admiralty in London, he
was instructed to contact Soviet
agents there by telephoning Ken- ISSUE 44 — 1962

Picking the small red berries
in the fragrant grass was
happy pastime.' The warm' sun,
the fresh off-ehore.. breeze, and

nested in the bushes added to
our pleas.nre, Hulling the berries

In July, we picked blueberries,

pastures, along the roadsides, in
the meadow margins, and in
woodland clearings were the low
bushes laden with berries. But
there were never too many ber-
ries for the families of the neigh-
borhood where muffins, flaps
jacksjacks, cakes, and pies fea-
tured blueberries every day.
My brothers and • I had a good
deal of rivalry as to which one
of us. could pick the most blue-
berries, Each 'of us worked out
a different system of picking.
Otis found a good patch, knelt
beside it, and picked methodical-
ly • until every berry was gone.
Ben's system was to bend over
a clump and snatch only the
largest clusters. I ran from knoll .
to knoll seeking the buthes that
had the 'largest berries. It was
usually Obis who brought home
the fOleSt•pall. and the one with
the fewest green ones in it. •
But Ben brought heime more
thari berries because he always
combined collecting,.with berry-
trig. Spruce gum, shells, drift-
wood; • ,and "colored rocks' were
only a few of the prizes that he
found while in the berry patch.

There was a time when the
oranberry: was considered mostly
in terms of sauce to accompany
'the Thanksgiving or Christmas
turkey. The rest of the year, ex-
Tepting perhaps for an occasional,
pie,. it was more or.less.neglect-
ed. Today, however, this fruit of
'glistening bright color and pleas-
ing flavor has really came into
'its own. Quick breads, cakes,
pan.cakes, pudding all take well
to the addition of cranberries;
to gay nothing..., of sparkling
beverages, conserves, marmala-
des, and relishes.
The' following recipes show a
'few of the many ways of using
this handsome fruit:
CRANBERRY MUFFINS
• 4 cup cranberry 'halves
3/2' cup confectioner's sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 'teaspoons baking powder
' Ve, teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons sugar
1 egg, well beaten
1 cup milk
4 tableepoons melted shortening
Combine oranberry halves with,
'confectioner's sugar. and let
stand40 minutes. Sift dry ingre-
dients, add beaten egg, milk, and
shortening. Add the sugared
cranberries last and max well
but do not beat. Bake at 350°F.

vies, which were made into Fath-
er's favorite jam, Every few
years, when the wild pears did
not blight, he picked several
quarts of peat berries, Which,
Mohher canned for winter sauce.
In his enthusiasm for berrying,
Otis sometimes picked berries
that did not find a welcome in
the home, kitchen, Large purple
huckleberries grew on the ledges
back of the school house. Otis
never failed to, appear in Moth-•
or's kitchen carrying a large pail
filled withberries, and repeating
the lined:

Mother always gave him the
'same Welcoine: "Pour a quart of
the berries into a pan and
_make yaw' a pit, theugh likely
you'll be the only one to eat it.
Throw the rest to the hens."
Otis could not resist gathering
string cherries wil4ch in August
hung like beads of red crystal
from the cherry trees that edged
the stone wall. He knew from
experience that Mother ;Would
%refuse his offering, but he al-
ways'gave several qudrts to Aunt
Harriet, who insisted that as a
child at plaPthe'had picked the

lish. We suspected that it was
from loyalty rather than liking

It Was SUPPOSED
To Cure Arthritis
The story filled four full pages
and dealt, in a rambling way,
with a 43-year-old Canadian doc-
tor, Robert E. Liefmann, who
claimed he had developed a sec-
ret new medicine called Liefcort
to cure arthritis, The article, to
be sure, was, careful never to
give full endorsement to either
Dr, Liefmann or his cure, but to
anyone who simply scanned this.
issue of Look magazine last May,
the elaborate treatment with its
soft-light photos of Dr. Leif-.
mann and his patients (accom-
panied by complimentary cap-
tions created an unquestionably
sympathetic impression.
By last month, Dr. Liefmann,
his cure, and Look were all in-
volved in the latest drug, scandal
to strike the U.S. George P. Lar-
riok, commissioner of the Food
and Drug "Administration, said
that after the Look article ap-
peared, many American arthritis
sufferers went to Canada and
obtained supplies of Dr. Lief-
mann's new medicine. One 71-
year-old California woman who
took the medicine, the FDA said,
developed severe uterine bleed-
ing and was so weakened that
'She died of pneumonia, After
receiving reports of abnormal
bleeding from other women who
tried Dr. Liefmann's cure, the
FDA alerted customs, officials to
seize all shipments of the- drug.
Look, which refused to com-
ment last month on commission-
er Larrick's statement, had, in
fact, warned its readers that Dr,
Liefmann's cure was highly con-
troversial. While reporting that
the doctor "may have come up
with a balance of hormones that
controls the rheumatoid factor,"
Look did say that Dr. Leifmann
was a "maverick" in the medical
profession, The article pointed
out, too, that Dr, Leifmann near-
ly flunked out of McGill Uni-
versity medical school and that
he was later tossed out of the
Royal Victoria Hospital in Mont-
real for "improper research pro-
cedures." The difficulty was that
Look's warnings tended to be lost
among the generally flattering
layout: what's more, the maga-
zine did not mention the fact
that. U.S. marshals have been
holding a' warrant for Dr. Lief-
mane's arrest since 1957 on the
charge that a baldness prepara-
tion he had sold in the U.S. was
falsely labeled.
Dr. Liefneann had neves• qual-
ified for a license to practice
medicine (as Look noted, he had
failed the province's medical-
board exams), brit when his wife
met a wtmian who was suffering
.from spinal arthritis, at a party
in a Montreal suburb twenty
months ago, he did not hesitate
to examine her. Then, in his own,
words: "I just went downstairs
and mixed it up. By God. I hit
it right on the head."
What Liefmann mixed up was
Liefcrot, a liquid solution Con-
taining powerf u l hormones.
Liefmann rapidly attracted thous
sands of patients; 'Obit he was
"boiling up the stutlf by the gal-
lon" in his basement. Liefcort
was released in Canada last FA-
,. ruary for clinical trials, Last
month, in the fare of the evi-
dence of abnormal bleeding, Ca-
nedian health officials stopped
distribution of the drug. Lielcert
