...might fail to work its familiar miracles. Second Baseman Red Schoendienst, the old pro who had carried them through the stretch (TIME, Sept. 2), could be counted on for a steady series, and most of Manager Fred Haney's other regulars were providentially free of injuries. But the bulk of the Braves' pitching staff are fireballers, and the Yankees eat such operators alive. There is one Brave, though, whose talent could make the difference. If the Braves were to upset the Yankees, they would need the best from their scrawny (6 ft., 175 Ibs.) but rugged southpaw, Warren...

To end wasteful secrecy in merchandising, Lincoln Filene in 1916 persuaded major U.S. stores to open up their books for the benefit of all, went on to help form Associated Merchandising Corp. for cooperative bulk buying from Europe and Asia (now more than $1.5 billion a year). Lincoln wanted to expand Filene's nationwide by merging with other stores; Edward was stubbornly against it, and eventually dropped out of the company's active management...
