...Khachaturian's Masquerade Suite (Asch, 5 sides). Although it has little of the pounding, rhythmic vigor of the Soviet composer's later Gayne Ballet Suite (TIME, March 24), this graceful reflection of a glittering Imperial Russian ballroom makes smooth and pleasant listening. Dmitri Kabalevsky, another Soviet up-&-comer, gets a single side in the album with a galloping Fete Populaire. Both performances are excellent...
...Night Clerk Comer Rowan sat in for his wife at the switchboard of Atlanta's Winecoff Hotel. It was a dull hour. Out of the front door, cold moonlight flooded deserted Peachtree Street. In his tenth-floor suite, white-thatched, 70-year-old W. Frank Winecoff, who built the hotel in 1913,* slept soundly...
McAfee, also a member of the 1942 squad, is a left-handed passing wingback, and Wizbicki, a substitute before the war, is a much improved ball player.

Where do we stand on nationalization? In short, what is our policy? From the bandstand, diehard ex-M.P. Sir Herbert Williams made...
President Truman sent a message to Savannah calling on the delegates to "breathe life" into the infant organizations. But monetary experts are not notably lively or gregarious. Spanish-speaking Negro bellboy Ben White introduced the lonely first-comer, Bolivia's Dr. Franklin Antezana Paz, to the lonely second-comer, Arturo Maschke Tornero of Chile. The two Latins warmly embraced. Latin American delegations were soon buzzing that they, as much as the war-scarred nations of Europe, expect a good slice of Bank funds for industrial development...
