Deputy commander of the expedition is Major General Mark Wayne Clark, 46. A graduate of West Point, tall, poker-stiff Mark Clark fought in France in World War I, is known as a strict disciplinarian and a thoroughgoing soldier. His creed: every U.S. fighting man should be taught to fight with any weapon, and from a tank, a truck, a boat or on foot-especially on foot. Clark's grouse is that the army is becoming road-bound. Offensive-minded, he has talked often and pointedly about a second front. "The sooner the better," he summed...
When he had successively materialized the Hindu gods, Ramakrishna turned to other religions. In 1874 he tried Christianity.

Fairness to the less financially privileged and freedom of conscience are the core of this people's referendum...
Humphrey Bogart is his usual hard-as-nails self, slapping people around, making strange with his lips, driving automobiles without any consideration for gas or rubber, and in the end dying the death that the Hays Office says all murderers, regardless of race or creed, must die. In spite of the fact that you can tell more or less what's going to happen after the first few minutes, you'll probably be sitting on the edge of your seat till it does happen. No matter how many times you've seen them before, jail breaks and murders and holdups...
