DUFFY, Circuit Judge.
Plaintiff Pape brought this suit seeking damages for libel. Jurisdiction was based upon diversity of citizenship. The complaint alleged the defendant, Time, Incorporated, publisher of the national weekly news magazine “Time”, had defamed plaintiff in its November 24, 1961 issue.
