...Star has no intention of rivaling the Post's more comprehensive coverage at home and abroad. Its planning for the coming presidential campaign is characteristic. "The Post," says Newbold Noyes, "will try to do everything. But that requires no judgment. We want to decide what is important and cover those aspects well." This quiet, well-mannered approach to the news has been gaining readers: the Star's circulation has risen 51,078, to 309,245, in the past five years. In the same period, the Post's circulation increased 58,804, to 467,505. From time...
Conductors of symphony orchestras are not the only musicians complaining about hectic schedules and overwork these days. Jazz Pianist Dave Brubeck has abandoned his quartet. After 16 years spent in demonstrating that jazz can be for the mind as well as the emotions, Brubeck (TIME cover, Nov. 8, 1954) decided to cut down on performing and devote more time to composing. Last week he sat in the Wilton, Conn., glass-and-stone house that he built four years ago, tinkering with final revisions on the first fruits of his lei sure-a 63-minute oratorio, The Light in the Wilderness...

When the Supreme Court gave its approval last week to the merger of the Pennsylvania and New York Central railroads, it was clearing the track for the nation's entire rail system. It was giving railroad management permission to highball into the future...
...Mobile & Ohio, with 9,200 miles of frequently parallel track, hope to merge too. The Missouri Pacific is anxious to take over the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe. The three "Northerns"-the Great Northern, the Northern Pacific and the Burlington-have been given tentative ICC permission to combine lines that cover most of the territory between Chicago and the Pacific. The Rock Island Line, an enticing property despite financial difficulties, has a plethora of suitors. Hoping to take all or part of the Rock Island over are the Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, Santa Fe, and Heineman's Chicago & North Western...
...educational costs have begun to soar. Kingman Brewster, president of Yale, estimates that his operating budget will climb from 89 million dollars to 206 milion dollars by 1976 without a change in enrollment. At present, no one foresees any significant increase in public or private aid to cover these rising costs. If the Bank loans were generally available, Congress and wealthy donors might even feel justified in reducing the present level of their aid. Since the Zaccharias plan assures that every student can finance his education regardless of its cost, colleges would probably raise student charges to incredibly high levels...
