Another Pentagon resignation in the making: Secretary of Defense Neil McElroy, who last May postponed his leave-taking after the death of Assistant Secretary Donald Quarles. McElroy, who spent much of his 27 months in office on far-ranging inspection tours, will make time to get just one more trip under his belt-to Alaska, Honolulu, the western Pacific and the Orient-before slipping back in late December to Procter & Gamble...
When the National Association of Broadcasters wrote its Television Code in 1952, the association decided that certain products should not rate air time at all, e.g., hemorrhoid remedies.

As an added requirement members of the workshop are expected to enroll in Astronomy 1, as well as to audit courses in related fields...
Today Sir Donald would have to take another reading. Baroque is a growing fashion, so popular that chamber music groups, armed with a baroque repertory, have popped up in towns from coast to coast, and record companies are cashing in on the boom. With hi-fi to bring out the delicate riches, the companies have issued no fewer than 173 baroque chamber works this year alone. Bach and Handel get their full share and there is also a growing list of lesser Italian composers and "forgotten geniuses" for the ordinary music lover to hear and enjoy...
