Now that she is a winsome lass of 18, Princess Anne's jelly-bean days are long past. But she graciously munched them with all the old enthusiasm during her visit to a Church of Scotland children's home. Her gesture was part of the royal family's official visit to Scotland, in which Queen Elizabeth II became the first reigning British monarch to attend the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland since 1603. The trip was a success, even though Prince Philip managed to raise a highland hackle or two. Speaking at the University of Edinburgh, the Prince grew annoyed at some steady heckling. When a bumptious student challenged him on one point, Philip finally blew up and snapped: "Shut up and grow up!"

"I'm hoping to get lots of grass-roots support," said the candidate. "My wife and I are going to fly to Sacramento together." With a string of such double-entendres, Dr. Timothy Leary spoke in Berkeley of his plans to run for Governor of California. He was even more euphoric than usual--with good reason. The U.S. Supreme Court had just ruled unconstitutional the federal marijuana statutes that led to his arrest in 1965 and eventually to his conviction and a 30-year jail sentence. Although the court noted that it had not ruled out any state laws regulating the use of marijuana, Leary claimed no worries about the future. "People ask me if I am serious," he said. "I tell them, 'No, I am not serious, but I am going to win.' "

Rumors have been making the rounds for months that all was not tranquil in the Cape Town, South Africa, home of Dr. Christiaan Barnard. Since he performed the world's first human-heart transplant operation, the doctor has become a globe-hopping celebrity, gadding about in the company of such inter national beauties as Princess Grace and Gina Lollobrigida. His wife Louwtjie did not hide her annoyance. "I've got a home to run," she said at one point, "whether we are famous or not." But Barnard continued to romp, and Louwtjie sued for divorce last week after 21 years of marriage. There was one bright spot in the doctor's week, though; his longest-surviving heart-transplant recipient, Dr. Philip Blaiberg, was pronounced hale and released from Cape Town's Groote Schuur Hospital after a seven-day recuperation from "complete exhaustion," and went home to celebrate his 60th birthday with his family.

Joie de vivre was the order of the evening as Sargent Shriver, U.S. Ambassador to France, was inducted into the Confrerie des Chevaliers du Tastevin, an elite French society of dedicated gastronomes and winebibbers. Exquisite hors d'oeuvres, sumptuous platters of meat and fowl, and splendid wines filled the tables in the vaulted cellars of Nuits-St.-Georges' Chateau du Clos de Vou-geot as the ambassador received the order of Grand Officier. Sargent swore an oath to "uphold and propagate French wines," and though his acceptance speech was delivered in French, it was laced with Americana. "We are not--as one of your chansonniers suggested--sending our men to the moon to set up more golf courses, but to plant vineyards and become the first winegrowing power in the cosmos."

In a rare philosophical moment, Errol Flynn once observed, "Any man who dies with more than $10,000 to his name is a failure." Hollywood's swashbuckling monument to impecuniosity has been dead for ten years, but Daughter Deirdre Flynn, 24, seems to be upholding the family name. Finding herself all but broke, Deirdre hired out as a stunt girl (at $29.15 a day) in two forthcoming movies, The Reivers and Hail, Hero. In between films, the 5-ft, 91-in. brunette zooms around off the set on her motorcycle. "Cycling gives you such enormous freedom," she says. And stunting? "It's interesting, exciting ... I just like it."

That ardent baseball fan, Tiny Tim, has a new hang-up these days--hockey. After taking in a few games, Tim appeared on a local ABC-TV show, Chicago, with Black Hawk Stars Eric Nesterenko and Stan Mikita. Tim, who now plays the sport on his hotel-room rugs, using soup cans for goals, raved over the hockey stick and jersey the players presented to him but admitted to certain reservations about the brutality of the game. "If I were commissioner of hockey," he said, "I would ban for life any player who lifted his stick in anger." His one concession: "Players could push each other--but gently."

Not long after Austrian Sculptor Bernard Reder evaded the Nazis and fled to the U.S. in 1943, he began work on what was to become the famous Wounded Woman, a powerful study of an anguished woman being soothed by several others. The work has been on exhibit around the world since 1949, but before he died in 1963, Reder requested that it be given to Denmark in appreciation of King Christian X's World War II "underground railroad" for Jewish refugees. The sculptor's dying wish was fulfilled as the work was quietly unveiled in Copenhagen's Churchill Park. Reder himself had not used the Danish escape route, but, said his widow Gusti, "To us, it seemed like a powerful miracle, a message of universal fraternity, unique in the history of the world."
