...first-and second-shift Marxes occupy a rambling, white-pillared Georgian mansion on a 20-acre estate in suburban Scarsdale, just off the Hutchinson River Parkway. Marx bought the red brick house for his first wife during World War II, but before they could move in, Renee Freda Marx died of cancer. After that, says Rosie O'Donnell, "Lou was both father and mother" to his children: Barbara, now 26, wife of Artist-Writer Earl Hubbard; Louis Jr., 24, a Princeton graduate, now a Marine lieutenant; Jacqueline ("Jackie"), a pretty, dark-haired Vassar graduate who joins New Jersey Republican Senator...

Not until two years after the Korean war began did Washington take its first-and only-significant step. It ruled that in the future all new plants seeking rapid tax amortization certificates would have to be located at least ten miles outside "Probable Ground Zero," i.e., defense industry and population centers.

P.H.S. men were privately hoping that public clamor for the vaccine, by some unforeseeable magic, would peter out by August, when the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis will finish inoculating first-and second-graders. Said Dr. Scheele. in a thinly veiled reference to the foundation's widely known determination to get an effective vaccine within Founder-President Basil O'Connor's lifetime: "You cannot make viruses meet deadlines."
