...England Journal of Medicine last week Dr. Thorndike, who also teaches surgery in Harvard Medical School, published a technical article on injuries in sports. A meaty chronicle of sprains, strains, ruptures of the spinal column and spleen, fractures of the skull, collapses of the lungs, it might persuade a casual reader that a sports doctor's life is a gory...

...rushed in & out of the bedroom without knocking: South Carolina's Senator Jimmy Byrnes, foxy, mellow, casual; Florida's Senator Claude Pepper, the eloquent, scarlet-faced swamplands slicker-both 100%ers. Big & little Democrats came in hordes, some humble like San Antonio's globular Maury Maverick (who came out saying "I didn't sit down-a small-time politician like me wouldn't dare"), some sardonic, like massive Federal Lender Jesse H.

...Thanks, Mitch." Evidence enough that Wendell Willkie lacked any real publicity organization was the casual, spotty, pre-convention coverage in most of the U. S. press. An exception (in the last weeks) was California: in that abnormal State, advertising aces in the J. Walter Thompson agency did as thorough a promotion job for Mr. Willkie as they had done in 1934 against Upton (EPIC) Sinclair...
