...weather in his native Natal is usually mild and sunny this time of year, but as Albert John Luthuli strolled along the streets of Oslo last week in a temperature of 14° F., an inner glow kept him comfortable. Said South Africa's Luthuli. the former Zulu chief who was in Oslo to receive the delayed 1960 Nobel Peace Prize: "I do not feel the cold because I am meeting so many warmhearted people...
...universe exploding-expanding swiftly into the uttermost reaches of space? Scientists have been puzzling over the startling speculation ever since the 1920s, when Mount Wilson Astronomers Edwin Hubble and Milton Humason discovered that the glow from distant galaxies was of a longer wave length than normal. Since light from a receding source shifts toward the red (long wave length) end of the spectrum, the Hubble-Humason observations seemed to suggest that far-out galaxies are all speeding away from the earth and from each other...

William Faulkner's image may have more dazzle, but for steady, omnidirectional glow, Warren's image holds a high place among living American authors. This is not entirely accounted for by Warren's talent; there are better poets, novelists and critics now practicing, and there may well be better professors at Yale. Diversity is the secret. For some reason, while a man who is superb in one field does not necessarily have a really ineluctable image...
