...Northwest Railway Station, and soon 25,000 people jammed this impromptu auditorium, bellowing guttural cheers as Orator Göring in ruthless fashion rammed all the most provocative Nazi doctrines home. Austrian Monarchists he first taunted, by referring to the head of the House of Habsburg as "This comic boy, Archduke Otto!" (guffaws) Grimly Göring warned: "If Legitimism†continues, it will be treated as high treason, regardless of whether the charge strikes at an archduke or a worker!" Meanwhile last week, put under Nazi lock & key near Salzburg was the first former royal and imperial highness...

At nine, engaged at $2.50 a week in a stage production of Barbara Frietchie to watch for the Rebels from a prop tree, he fell out of the tree, got a raise because...
...Allied Arts show of Dallas, Tex. fortnight ago admitted to its annual competition a piece of sculpture by a Negro. Last week a jury, including San Antonio's wintering Artist Henry Lee McFee, awarded it first prize. The sculptor: Thurmond Townsend, 26, a $9.40-a-week bus boy in the Talk of the Town, an eating place on Dallas' Main Street. Sculptor Townsend never tried modeling until one day a few months ago, when the mud in his back yard suddenly looked malleable and inviting.
