...There have not been any riots in Moscow and probably no place else and there probably will not be. Few, if any, qualified foreign observers appear to believe there is a likelihood of anything more dramatic happening here than a continuation of the arrests, dismissals, trials and shootings." It was dramatic enough that the Premier of Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic, the Vice Premier, and the Mayor of Bukhara were ousted from their jobs last week. The Premier's brother had meanwhile committed suicide. Over in White Russia, where the President killed himself fortnight ago, it was Railway Commissar Nikolai...
Guests and regulars alike at Lakewood get $50 a week. Like other Maine summer stock theatres such as the Garrick Players (Kennebunkport), Ogunquit Playhouse (where for one week Bubble Dancer Sally Rand will appear as the freak draw in They Knew What They Wanted), and the new Boothbay Play house, Lakewood gets its customers from all over the State. Usual week's gross is $2,500. Three years ago, when Groucho Marx appeared in Twentieth Century, the take was doubled. Skowheganites say that fish came out of the lake to see that show...
...foot steel lever which puts the locomotive either in reverse or forward motion and also controls the flow of new steam into the boilers to adjust speed. On small engines the Johnson bar causes no trouble, has been used for 50 years without improvement.

Dr. Shaw, now almost 80, who was away on vacation with his 26-year-old second wife, quickly returned to New York to take editorial charge of the new magazine. It will consist of three sections: a lead called "The Story of a Week," a centre filled with picture layouts, a back-of-the-book dedicated...
...whenever it turns up. But even they are likely to miss it either because they are slow in recognizing it or because they do not know where it can be found. To bridge this gap in communication between writers and readers small, independent presses every once in a while appear. Liable to crankiness, preciosity and short wind, a few nevertheless make themselves useful. Last week an interesting candidate for usefulness published its fifth book in a series devoted to "work of individualists." The press: New Directions, of Norfolk, Conn. The editor: 23-year-old James Laughlin IV of the Pittsburgh...
