...exception: Joe McCarthy and Arthur Watkins, at their adjacent desks, leaned away from each other almost to the point of toppling off their chairs). But missing, since the death last year of North Carolina's courtly Senator Clyde Hoey, were those traditional stylemarks of senatorial dignity, the cutaway coat and the wing collar. This year's fashions tended toward red neckties, as worn, in descending order of brilliance, by Walter George, Montana's Democratic Senator Joseph C.

...with her attractive nurse. To varying degrees, the rest of his family approves of his venture, and forms a cheering section outside his bedroom door. Overnight a remarkable change takes place: by dawn the young man has shed his drab finales and pale timidity for a West Coast sport coat and a jut-jawed aggressiveness. This action is marked by an exchange of witticisms which in places would hardly do credit to a reform school stag. For authors Theodore Hirsch and Jeanette Patton, this may be high comedy.

In addition, the Trib has stopped trying to match the Times in comprehensive news coverage. Trib Publisher Helen Rogers Reid and her two sons, Editor Whitelaw ("Whitey"), 41, and Vice President Ogden ("Brownie"), 29, are banking on selection rather than mass ("More news in less time"), and the drawing power of probably the best collection of columnists of any U.S. paper (Walter Lippmann, Joe and Stewart Alsop, Roscoe Drummond...

Yet the food, brought over from the Adams House kitchen, is as good or better than that of the houses. And the addition of the contested coat and tie rule, now strongly approved by the great majority of the Center, has helped make Dudley a likeable noon dining place for a daily average of fifty inter house students.
