...hatchet-work of primary politics, rugged, mercurial Tommy the Cork is the partner who is getting it done. (Shy, cool Partner Cohen jaunted to Europe last week.) Putting inde-goddam-pendent journalists up to playing his game is one of his methods. The journalistic team of Drew Pearson & Robert S. Allen are Tom Corcoran's natural mouthpieces; his temperature and blood pressure are accurately reflected in what they have to say to their syndicate readers daily. This is not just because Allen is the Neanderthal type of Liberal and Pearson the parlor mauve type-a perfect team-but because...

...waddle wild-eyed into a public street, the police gave the alarm, closed the park streets to traffic, drove moppets out of the park swimming pool. After a five-hour police search a park workman walked down into an underpass, found the bear holed up in a cool corner. Driven out by a machine-gun barrage, Too Tough reared up to her full eight feet, lunged at Zoo Superintendent Arnold J. Schaumann, stiffened as his rifle cracked four times...
