...Crimson mile relay team composed of Landau, Dave Brahms, Pat Liles, and Lee Barnes is pitted against runners from Yale and Georgetown. A two-mile quartet, including Bill Thompson, captain Pete Reider, Art Cohn, and Ed Martin will meet Yale and Holy Cross. McCurdy thinks that the latter unit is "the best two-mile relay team we've had here in quite a long time...
...nationally bylined Hearst exposé specialist. A special investigator for the late Senator McCarthy, Rushmore testified before House committees as an "expert witness" on Communism, earned the Wisconsin Senator's praise as "one of our outstanding Americans at this time." After a much-publicized feud with Lawyer Roy Cohn, Pundit George Sokolsky and other pro-Joes, Rushmore was fired by the Hearst press "for economy reasons," signed on with Confidential, resigned as editor before testifying against Confidential in the Hollywood libel trials (TIME, Aug. 26), before his death was debt-haunted, hopefully trying for an assignment from the Police...
...Slyke has organized specialists in each field into study councils to make recommendations. Most of the time, Van Slyke and his advisers were right in their choice of projects to back, notably research with anti-TB drugs, the momentous blood-fractionation work of Harvard's late Edwin J.

About the only visitors who have received a less than hearty welcome were Junketers Cohn & Schine, who showed up in 1953 on a tour for the late Senator McCarthy, to sniff the stacks for anti-Americanism. Politely, Director Dr. Ian Forbes Fraser explained that his library was private, showed the pair the door. On Fraser's shelves are volumes to turn any McCarthyite red. When the State Department nervously banned the fictional biography Citizen Tom Paine, by the then Redolent Howard Fast, from its overseas informational libraries, Fraser ordered six extra copies to handle the requests of curious Frenchmen...
...pussyfooting about the nymphomania of the heroine, who settles for all men in lieu of Jake whom she loves; as man-crazy Lady Ashley (Brett), Ava Gardner turns in the most realistic performance of her career. The other major characters also rise to true book size. As Robert Cohn, the unwanted, brooding Jew, Mel Ferrer is especially convincing. The fascinating quintet converging on Pamplona for the fiesta is rounded out by Errol Flynn (wonderful as boozy Mike Campbell, the happy-went-lucky bankrupt) and Eddie Albert (as Bill Gorton, everybody...
