...knows exactly how many public relations men there are at the moment; the Public Relations Society of America estimates that there are 100,000, not counting the bulk of Government p.r.s. About 60% of them are on the staffs of business firms, 10% work for nonprofit organizations, and 30% work for independent p.r. companies. Among other indicators of growth, the New York City Classified Directory listed ten public relations consultants in 1935; today there are 735. A decade ago, 136 colleges and universities offered at least one course in the subject; today there are about 280, and 20 of them...

A development bank with $36 million in capital will also be established to encourage industrialization, especially in Uganda and Tanzania, which trail far behind Kenya's impressive...
...Anna Bing Arnold (who performed in the 1930s under the stage name of Anna Kostant) contributed Anna Mahler's show-bizzy Tower of Masks for the entrance to Macgowan Hall. In 1964 the U.C.L.A. Arts Council and Regent Norton Simon bought Lipchitz' Song of the Vowels. The bulk of the collection came from the estate of David E. Bright, a Los Angeles industrialist who died in 1965. Bright left the Moore, a Hepworth, another Lipchitz, and two pieces that are far and away the most popular with the students. One is an Henri Laurens reclining nude, called Esquisse...
