...Scholarship Committee will decide the actual size of scholarships for the Class of '62 during the summer, after House room prices are known. Sophomore and Junior scholarships will probably not be raised greatly, Bender said...
...motive. Under Mrs. Morell's will Dr. Adams got a case of silver, worth no more than $761-hardly a sufficient incentive for murder.

The figure last week: 86% of the industry's newly expanded capacity, 2,439,000 actual tons and a volume within hollering distance of the 2,525,000-ton alltime peak set in December 1956. As customers hurried to build up depleted inventories and hedge against the threat of a strike or higher prices in July, some mills even began to ration short products...
