After a Russian supper of vodka, cherry brandy, sausages, fried potatoes, more vodka and endless cherry brandy bottoms-up, eight U.S. reporters and their three escorting Russian officers went out walking in Halle. Its streets were lit by a pale moon, traced by the grotesque shadows of bombed buildings. They had not gone a block before the first Germans joined them. By the second block there were 50. By the third every American was walking separately, surrounded by a milling group of Germans, pushing and shoving to say a few words into the correspondents' ears...
Rivets & Crops. All this involved endless private problems in logistics. The average citizen solved them by backing out the family automobile, crossing his fingers and heading for the open road. Whatever else happened, gas pumps were full. Highways were acrawl with cars. By summer's end, 60 million people would have made trips in 20 million automobiles. But for all this brave show, motoring in 1946 was not unlike motoring in the day of the Stutz Bearcat. Motors failed. Tires collapsed. Lodgings were hard to find.

We see five figures going over an obstacle course together...
Wanted: Freedom. Last week, as he stepped up to receive the Passano award in Baltimore's historic Osler Hall of Maryland Medical and Chirurgical Faculty, Ernest Goodpasture saw an opportunity to expound some theories about research developed in the years on the "Endless Frontier." In a philosophic, rambling and often brilliant address, he deplored the fact that researchers are too often hamstrung by special "projects," are not permitted to follow their own keen noses. Exploratory research, said he, entails relatively great financial risk, but these risks must be met if medicine is to serve humanity and not a social...
