...Jackson v. Denno (1964) reversed the Brooklyn cop-killing conviction of Nathan Jackson, who claimed that he had been drugged when he confessed. The court said that judges must now determine the voluntariness of disputed confessions before allowing juries to weigh them as evidence. But this month, having lost in a voluntariness hearing, Jackson was again sentenced to death. By last week trial judges had rebuffed four other New York murder defendants under the new procedure...
...just like the good old days, when the Paramount's bobby-soxers swung and shrieked to Benny Goodman's clarinet and all but ate up Frankie Sinatra alive. But with a difference.

...lands where he once was master. Composition Piece examines through a black man's eyes "the new, post-war group of colonial administrators, liberal in opinions, immensely tolerant, who want to lend one books and dedicate their lives to one's assistance." Dawn at Reyn's Cop describes how history catches up with a young Boer who kills a Kaffir servant and discovers to his horror that the law is seriously prepared to demand a white life for a black one. The Picnic depicts an Englishwoman stupefied to find herself in love with an Arab...
