...country for magnolia land. He has written a boozy-bucolic picture postcard reminiscence of his North Carolina boyhood. In Author Ruark's memory-misted eyes the Old Man (Ned Hall) is a cross between Thoreau and Natty Bumppo, and the Boy (Robert Chester Ruark Jr.) a blend of Huck Finn and Hemingway's Nick Adams.

...Kohler, the only campaigner who had declared himself squarely behind Dwight Eisenhower and Modern Republicanism, faced some vociferous barking from the sideshows during the three-week campaign. Among the barkers: eight-term Congressman Alvin O'Konski, 53, whose campaign manager decided to sell O'Konski's blend of domestic New Dealism and mossbacked foreign policy by television and newspaper spreads "just like you sell a new potato salad" (and brought him in third). Another was Gerald D. Lorge, 35, a "fighting marine" who fought a campaign in Joe McCarthy's image, came in sixth to discover...
