...President of the U. S. told White House correspondents that he could think of only three ways to get rid of the nation's cotton mountain. He could burn it in a huge bonfire. He could float it into the Gulf of Mexico and sink it-no fantastic dream, for Brazil, weighted down by a similar mountain of coffee, tried both...
Most sentimental and (next to the Open) toughest U. S. golf tournament is the Masters', played on Bobby Jones's "dream course" in Augusta, Ga.

No. 1 criticism of Dali is that...
...restless, wasp-waisted artist with his whimsical mustache and eyes of an old crystal-gazer declared last week that for him the period of Surrealist dream-documentation was about over, the period of Paranoiac painting just beginning. Example: The Image Disappears, a painting which is at once a Vermeer-like Young Girl Reading a Letter, and a beady-eyed portrait of a bearded...
