...water after it dried. Last week Reichhold introduced a water-soluble resin which is the base for a paint that, after baking, can't be washed off. Moreover, it also withstands weathering, salt water and corrosion. For automakers, Reichhold's resin may mean an end to flash fires in paint shops, less expensive fire prevention, and elimination of costly solvent-recovery systems. For industrial users generally, it means a cheaper finish coating...
...York's Communist-dominated American Labor Party gained more political power. Miller might well have become police commissioner. The Communist lieutenant accepted the verdict, stayed faithfully on duty until the department finally gathered enough solid evidence to cite him for trial. But Miller disappeared in a flash after that, and last week's proceedings (which resulted in his dismissal from the force) were conducted with the defendant's chair empty...

As a Grossinger's staff member, Eddie sang every night for a whole summer, learned how to gauge the reactions of the hotel's Broadway-wise customers, how to flash his bright smile at the right moment, how to pitch his voice for the best effect.

Above all, it is a spectacle that gives glimpses of the soul as well...

"A college president," he says, "has two choices. One is to lean toward being a public figure. I decided to throw my weight toward Princeton." Dodds has built slowly and well on foundations that he never wanted to alter. Unlike Mover Conant or Shaker Hutchins, he can sum up his career so far with a refreshingly unorthodox boast: that in its basic philosophy, Princeton "has not changed in the least in the last 20 years...
