Significant Difference. The prosecution's case was much stronger than in the Anniston trial. It was the already-familiar story told in damning detail by Gary Thomas Rowe, an FBI informant planted in the Ku Klux Klan, who testified that he rode with the killers when they gunned down Mrs. Liuzzo. Despite his first-hand testimony, juries in two state trials had failed to convict Collie LeRoy Wilkins, 22, on murder charges. The significant difference in federal court last week was that Wilkins and two fellow Klansmen, Eugene Thomas, 42, and William Orville Eaton, 41, were prosecuted under...
...completely, as is usually done in conventional jazz. Intervals within the melody, melody fragments, or the shape of the line, will appear in the improvisation. Since all the pieces in this concert were originals it was harder to pick this out than last year, when he was playing familiar melodies. But the technique could be detected, as in "Little...
This time trouble had come in an unexpected form. The deadly bacillus was not a familiar strain of Vibrio cholerae (or Vibrio comma, from its shape), for which a vaccine of sorts is available. Instead, it was a strain of the El Tor group of vibrios,* one which had previously confined its disease-causing activities to the Indonesian island of Celebes.

Then it spread into Iran and Uzbekistan...
Wars, Presidents and newspapers have come and gone, and the columnists of yesterday still write on, as confidently as ever. Arthur Krock at 79, David Lawrence at 76, Walter Lippmann at 76, and Drew Pearson at 67 remain familiar if greying presences in the nation's press. Roscoe Drummond, 63, James Reston, 56, and Joseph Alsop, 55, have been around so long that they too seem part of the patriarchy. But the roster of challengers is growing fast...
...almost like old times-distressingly so. There in the Nielsen top ten last week were the old familiar faces, from NBC's Bonanza, in first place for the second year, to Gomer Pyle, The Farmer's Daughter, Lucy, Dick Van Dyke, The Beverly Hillbillies, Walt Disney and Bewitched. There was Red Skelton, now in his 12th year and ranked No. 6. And back into the lead surged CBS,* which is still indebted to its fired ex-president, James Aubrey, for almost all of its current programming, including six out of the top nine...
