In sober tones befitting his position as a corporation president, bongo-bopping Producer Desi Arnaz, 45, told the 75 stockholders that Desilu Productions Inc. netted $611,921 from such TV productions as The Untouchables and Ben Casey last year and aims for $1,000,000 in fiscal 1963. On the president's left, looking like a rainbow in red hair, green slacks, yellow blouse, white loafers, sat Lucille Ball, 51. his exwife, a major stockholder and $25,000-a-year vice president. Grinned Desi introducing Lawyer Milton Rudin: "He was so good representing Mrs. Arnaz in our divorce, I thought he should be working for both of us."
"You've been following us with that thing ever since we left the Crinan Canal." bellowed England's Prince Philip, 41, to a telephoto-toting Scottish newspaper photographer chasing along the bank as the duke's royal yawl Bloodhound maneuvered through locks near Fort William, Scotland.

Next day, his nostalgic 2,000-mile tour of Western Europe ended, Ike and Mamie, 65, boarded the liner America at the port of Cobh as cathedral bells pealed and a crowd of hundreds wished them bon voyage.
Playing a garment-district secretary named Miss Marmelstein who has all the sex appeal of an eight-day-old bagel, Actress Barbra Streisand, 20, is about the only bargain in the Broadway musical I Can Get It for You Wholesale. So having arrived at star status, she felt compelled to utter a few words on her Method that would make Stanislavsky spin. "It has to be a little false to show the truth," she told a New York Post reporter. "Like I used to wear my hair down for a show, and they couldn't see my eyes, they couldn't see the truth. That's the way I wear my hair, but now I push it up so they can see. The truth has to come out of falsity. Like it has to be exaggerated to show the truth. You know what I mean?"
