...first on NBC), Omnibus proved Madison Avenue more wrong than ever. With two-thirds of the show sold (to Aluminium Ltd. and Union Carbide), and the other third bid for, Omnibus kicked off with a slickly attractive white-shoe production of Stover at Yale, a tongue-in-dimpled-cheek musical adaptation by Douglass (Damn Yankees) Wallop of the old Owen Johnson stories. Much of the play lived up to Alistair Cooke's introduction of it as "a gentle thing, both odd and funny." When the boola overflowed with the fun of the Turkey trot, ragtime and jagtime at Mory...

First, a carotid artery was tied off, and glands beneath the upper jawbone (some of them already suspiciously enlarged) were removed. In the second stage of the operation, after slitting the lip and cheek wide open, the surgeon removed the whole upper jaw and palate on the right side, which...
...caught a bullet full in the face. The gunman, thought to be a professional Cuban gun slinger, grabbed Martnez' briefcase, then scuttled from the building undetected. Only in one detail did the shooting vary from the pattern: the bullet ripped through Martnez' cheek and neck, missing a vital spot, and the Trujillo critic will probably live...
