...indeed done an injustice to the record of a distinguished soldier. Back to Capitol Hill next day went Jim Gavin for another run-through before the committee and another press statement. Said Gavin: "I can do better for the Army outside than in. I have no ax to grind. I am not unhappy with my Secretary. I am not going out to write and raise a rumpus and things...
Both the high-riding westerns and the downbeat singers reflect a certain hardening of TV's arteries. The formats have jelled; the entertainment too often looks as mass-produced as the receivers. Production has shifted steadily to Hollywood, where the film factories grind out series after series like links of sausage. Despite its uneven quality this season, Playhouse go proves that Hollywood TV can turn out good live drama as well. But with the move of CBS's Studio One to Hollywood this month, live TV drama has lost almost the last of the roots that nourished...
Like many energetic young men, T.R. was a bit of a rebel, and refused to knuckle under completely to the academic grind at Harvard. He read voraciously, but for information, not for exams.

As he noted in his autobiography, "I worked drearily at the Gracchi because I had to; my conscientious and much-to-be-pitied professor dragging me through the theme by main strength, with my feet firmly planted in dull and totally idea-proof resistance...
...Fore. To be used in liquid-fueled rockets, both fuel and oxydizer must be liquid and thin enough to be pumped rapidly. This rules out promising materials, e.g., boron itself and many of its compounds, that are not liquid at ordinary temperatures. One way around this difficulty is to grind them finely and mix them with a liquid carrier to form a paintlike slurry. The most radical way is to burn them as solids with a solid oxydizer. Through this technique, a long list of new high-energy materials can be used...
With rain expected to fall throughout the day, the straight bread-and-butter plays which grind out yardage in small chunks will probably decide the outcome of the game. Penn's flashy sophomore halfbacks, Fred Doelling, John Hanlon, and John Terpak will probably give way to the fullback thrusts of John Wright and Dave Sikarski. Wright opened the season at halfback but was switched to the fullback spot when Terpak, Hanlon, and Doelling showed well in early games...
