Even so, their efforts were dwarfed by the herculean task of processing the 2,221 Negroes who were charged with felonies during the rioting. More than 800 remain behind bars, either denied bond or unable to post it. Some 65% of the hundreds of misdemeanor cases have already been disposed of, but the first of the felony defendants-most of them charged with burglary-will not go on trial until late this month, when proceedings will begin in 21 court rooms...
Moron Smart. The new season had been billed as the big Bond payoff, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. seemed to have found the right spoofing approach; even with reruns, U.N.C.L.E. managed during the summer to stay up in the top ten.

Never slowing down, Mays rounded first, streaked for second, and slid in safely amid a cloud of dust. Moments later, Willie McCovey slapped a single to right, and Mays scampered home with the run that gave the Giants their 13th straight victory, boosted their National League lead to 31 games...
Partly because of rising buyer interest and partly because bank loans are becoming harder to obtain and the bond market is weak, many firms are planning to float new stock issues in the fall. They have been waiting since spring for the right time to bring their issues to market, feel that the current advance provides the proper opportunity. The market showed signs of profit-taking at week's end, may yet have some rocky sessions ahead. Many analysts are predicting, nonetheless, that it will soon break through to a new peak. Whatever the fall may bring, the market...
