...after Lawyer Tillett were dim indeed: his family simply did not have enough money to send him to college. After his farm years of milking, plowing, picking cotton, bushy-haired Charlie Rhyne got a city job as a Western Union messenger boy in Charlotte. With $300 in savings in hand, he enrolled at Duke University. He had an early-morning newspaper route; he sold Bibles in West Virginia during the summer, and still ran out of money in his sophomore year and had to quit school. He hitchhiked West, dug storm sewers in Denver, earned some of his hardest...
...devices are far less imaginative than the shoplifters' gimmicks. National Food trains clerks and checkers by film slides and lecture tapes ("An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of apprehension"), and most chains have beefed up their security forces. Checkers learn catcherlike signals (e.g., can tossed from hand to hand is S O S call).

Arth was cut on the hand and foot, while Shegloff received a gash on the leg. The two men, who had been sitting at the counter when the bomb exploded, were treated at Stillman and released...
...going unnoticed in an exhibition of paintings, as if their contribution was to be taken as decor, and it is good to see first prize go to a sculpture of remarkable proficiency. The work is actually a series of three pieces, akin in conception to Rodin's The Hand of God. Buscaglia might do well in the future to exhibit each separately. Each is capable of standing alone and each, despite their continuity, tends to lessen the importance of the other...
