Radiation officials checked with the federal postal authorities, and Sherman's jig was up. Arrested in Orlando, Sherman pleaded guilty to three counts of using the mails to defraud and now faces a maximum sentence of 15 years. Sighs Sherman: "I'm glad...

Berlin, president (since 1940) of the Hearst Corp. and onetime Hearst ad salesman. In 1956 Ber lin began hacking away at the Hearst chain with both hands. By sale or merger he dropped money-losing papers in Chicago, San Francisco, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Boston, Los Angeles and Milwaukee; he also sold Hearst's International News Service to United Press.
