...most of her old stories and adds a few. Our Mrs. Parker may not seem quite so startling as she did in the dear dead days, but her stories still pack an impressive punch. . . . John O'Hara has some more tough stories in "Files On Parade" many of them good, although one can't help but feel that he is capable of better than he has been giving us. . . "Sailor off the Bremen," by Irwin Shaw, is a collection of twenty stories by a young writer who started with "Bury the Dead" and has continued to turn out work...

Big Vern Miller will undoubtedly learn a lot of wrestling in a few weeks under Pat Johnson, but hard-working Gardiner will give him a good battle before being displaced. Dick Harlow's endorsement of wrestling for many of his linemen has brought quite a few big boys up to the black mat on the second floor.
