First, as to why we have so much hot dope on Russia inside the magazine: The reason for this is that ten days ago we called out one of our special correspondents in Germany and got him safely across the frontier into neutral country, from which he could send us the uncensored truth. The day after he left Germany he telephoned that he had tremendous news but that he could not jeopardize his position by spilling it to us at that time over the wire. But as soon as the new war broke out he called us again...
...political situation in Texas was confused enough before the Governor jumped in. Three weeks after the campaign's start (TIME, May 5), most observers were ready to tear up their dope sheets. Martin Dies, who eats two Communists for breakfast every morning, was running a surprisingly colorless campaign. Lyndon Johnson, 32, the New Deal's candidate, suffered the awful fate of Wendell Willkie-his voice gave out just as he began a whirlwind speaking tour.

The Telegram hired a series of detective storytellers to mastermind the Hess Case. One, Lee Wright of Publishers Simon & Schuster, opined that Hess wasn't Hess...
Prinie and Donahue were double winners here as expected, but the performance which proved the most spectacular upset and pleased the Crimson above all dope sheet predictions for the first time during the afternoon was Bob Houghton's triumphant 4:29.6 mile run. Bucking the wind on the back stretch, Houghton finally nosed out Yale's favored Mac Main by a foot, with Bob Young running another length behind...
