...last seven months. The scene has changed from the gloomy digs he used to occupy with his wife and two children in a house he got rent-free from his in-laws. Recently elected an associate of the august Royal Academy, and sporting a new beard, Bratby has come up in the world. Hit, new background is his own rambling, Victorian house, with cracked swimming pool, in London's Blackheath district. But the exuberant pictures of the disorderly, newspaper-strewn interiors and the sunflower-choked garden (often with the face of a Bratby child peering through the stalks) show...
...Groot is filling out his concert season with old standbys, e.g., the Brahms version of Bach's Violin Chaconne, which he played last week to critical huzzahs on the Dutch radio.

Besides mothering their three sons, Sylvy Ruth Kornberg, M.S., has co-authored many papers with her husband, works full time in his Stanford University laboratory...
...harried railroads, who hoped for a boost in booming 1959, the strike dealt a smashing blow. In 13 weeks the roads lost an estimated $459 million in gross revenues. Railroad employment on Sept. 30 fell to 797,195, the lowest since 1900. Third-quarter rail earnings, when they come out in the next several weeks, will not make pleasant reading...
