1964 marked the first issue of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition and was credited with making the “bikini” a justifiable piece of apparel. The cover girl for this January issue was Babette March, now known as “Babette Beatty,” who was an international model and known for her “cover” work on many other magazines, as well as for living-in-up with the likes of Mick Jagger and Andy Warhol…ho hum, such is the life! <Grin> Babette Beatty is an established artist, known for her beautiful “painted ladies” which appear on the labels of “Zhoo Zhoo” wine made by Hells Canyon Winery.

But in 1956, Luce caught a glimpse of Andre Languerre’s singular coverage of the Winter Olympic Games in Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy, and hired him on as assistant managing editor.
By 1960, after becoming “managing editor, Languerre more than doubled the magazine’s circulation by his extraordinary use of full-color photography for that weeks sporting event; which was unheard of for this kind of publication. Laguerre also pioneered an interesting concept of having one “long” story at the end of every issue – he called this the “bonus piece.” I only add this in because, as you all may know by now, I’m very wordy and LOVE “long” chronicles!
