...judge was identified as gaunt, greying Judge Raulston Schoolfield, 51, unsuccessful 1954 candidate for governor against Frank Clement and currently president of two separate Tennessee segregation societies. Six years ago 13 teamsters, including Chattanooga Local 515's President Glenn W. Smith and Secretary-Treasurer Hubert L. Boling, were indicted for dynamiting and arson during organizing drives. The 13 came for arraignment before Judge Schoolfield, who carefully studied the evidence against them and decided it was "good." In fact, testified former Court Officer James W. West, Judge Schoolfield "seemed enthused" at the prospect-possibly because earlier the Teamsters Union...
...weeks, ably caught the mood of the day that began in an ordinary way. The cameras poked neatly around the well-stocked innards of the city's steel-and-concrete underground operations center. But Portland's citizens let viewers down. Mobilizing to the immobile narration of Cinemactor Glenn Ford ("quietly, with caution, but without panic"), the actors behaved with the equanimity of Perry Como in a high school fire drill, rendering unnecessary the slides CBS periodically superimposed over the actors to explain: "AN ATTACK IS NOT TAKING PLACE...
...Navy tradition, but from the first word uttered by Boatswain's Mate Jones (Mickey Shaughnessy)-a short, unpleasant sound that is blotted from the sound track by a stentorian beep-it is apparent that he represents one of the worst mistakes a recruiting officer ever made. Lieut. Siegel (Glenn Ford), Marblehead's chief whipping boy, is assigned to rectify the error, and manages to teach the brute a few appropriate words to say at war-bond rallies. Touched with gratitude after his first public ad-dresk Seaman Jones takes the opportunity to tell one and all, including...
...Glenn Theodore Seaborg, 45, director of chemical research at the University of California's Radiation Laboratory, explains with disarming simplicity: "I discover new elements." Born in the mining town of Ishpeming, Mich., he found his calling in a Los Angeles high-'school science class, pursued it at the University of California (Ph.D., chemistry, 1937), became a key developer of the atomic bomb. In 1951, with Colleague Edwin M. McMillan, he won the Nobel Prize for his discovery (in 1940) of element 94 (plutonium), has since played a heavy role in finding subsequent elements (through No. 101). Although...
Flying into Claremore from Washington to address the business-suited Blackfeet, Apache, Sioux, Mohawk, Chinook, Zuñi, Cheyenne, Chocktaw, Kickapoo and others was Commissioner Glenn Emmons himself, onetime New Mexico banker and a longtime neighbor and friend of the Navajo. Listing such Indian advances of the recent past as better health care and improved educational facilities, Emmons declared his own "confidence in the native capacities of Indian people-in their ability to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps if they are only given a decent opportunity." But, predictably, Emmons' words of encouragement fell on ruffled feathers...
