Hurst, a professor at the University of Wisconsin Law School will receive his award from President Pusey at a meeting of the Law Faculty on January 13, 1959. The award to Sayles, who is Burnett-Fletcher Professor of History at the University of Aberdeen, will be made by Samuel E. Horne, professor of Legal History...
Stopping Paris traffic with her slim figure and undiminished stage presence. Old-time Operatic Soprano Mary Garden concealed all but the younger half of her 81 years. Stirring from retirement in Aberdeen, the Scots prima donna was reportedly in the city on business: to sign a contract for a motion picture and TV series based on her life.

In 1944 he ran gallantly, although unsuccessfully, for Parliament on a platform of. roughly, "Remember Bannockburn." More or less in the spirit of things, he published, while lecturing at Aberdeen University, something called The Aidd Aberdeen Courant and Neo-Caledonian Spasmodical.

Last week Florida's 1,400,000 head of Brahmas, Santa Gertrudis, Herefords and Aberdeen-Anguses were so weakened by malnutrition and weeks of slushing around in soggy pastures that cattlemen feared deaths would reach 270,000. Deaths already had decimated Collier County's 25,000 herd, and the area's spring calf crop was expected to be only 10 to 15 liveborn...
