...been invited to any of the performances, but he had read about the programs and that was enough. So far as Drama Critic Richard Coe of the Washington Post and Times Herald is concerned, during the 1958-59 season the White House was one of the nation's worst show spots. Running down the bills, Critic Coe could tick off the Supreme Court dinner in December, when the President's guests heard a collection of local amateur harpists; the diplomatic corps dinners, which featured the boys' choir of Washington's Landon School; and the season...
...been the hottest-selling art object in Hokkaido, Japan's northernmost big island, is the small plaster bust (price: $1) of a stern-faced New England schoolmaster who died in 1887. William Smith Clark stayed only eight months on Hokkaido, but the visit, in 1876, was long enough for him to be enshrined by the islanders as something between seer and saint. On leave from his job as president of Massachusetts Agricultural College (now the University of Massachusetts), Clark helped found the school that was to become the outpost island's pride, its own first-rank university.

...nation's health in the twelvemonth ended June 30, made by sending investigators to a cross-section sample of 36,000 homes in 330 areas, checking on 115,000 individuals (TIME, May 20, 1957).

...runs out July 1, and the steel union has already done some tough talking about the big pay package-estimated at $1 billion a year in wage increases and benefits-it expects to demand. Most steelmen, along with their customers, expect a strike. The automakers, trying to lay in enough steel for their 1959 models and part of their 1960 production, guaranteed their suppliers against loss if they in turn would buy ahead. But many a steel user who had let his inventories get close to bottom was discovering that it was hard to rebuild them enough for strike protection...
...fast are earnings picking up to match the recovery? From U.S. business last week came fourth-quarter reports that showed profits rising fast enough in many cases to offset the previous slowdown and turn 1958 into a fine year. After limping along 33% behind 1957 for the first nine months, Monsanto Chemical Co. reported the best fourth quarter in history, so good that full-year earnings totaled $1.55 per share, only 7.7% behind last year. Philco's fourth quarter nearly doubled last year's rate. Seeburg Corp. announced 54? a share in the first quarter of its fiscal...
