The Beatles in NME - 15 February 1963

In the New Musical Expresss of 15 February 1963 The Beatles rose to number 3:

Top Thirty
 1.  "Diamonds," Jet Harris and Tony Meehan (Decca)
 2.  "The Wayward Wind," Frank Ifield (Columbia)
 3.  "Please Please Me," Beatles (Parlophone)
 4.  "Little Town Flirt," Del Shannon (London)
 5.  "Loop De Loop," Frankie Vaughn (Philips)
There was also an article about an upcoming Beatles tour:
Beatles-Eddy Package Starts Tour in May
And on page 9 there was a life-line list of the Beatles.

John Lennon lists his personal ambition as “to write a musical”; his professional ambition as “to be rich and famous”; his likes as “blondes, leather”; and his dislikes as “stupid people.”
