...Mitchell White and his son, Robert Mitchell White II. In the city of New York (pop. 8,000,000) on the east bank of the Hudson River, the morning Herald Tribune has a daily circulation of about 351,000, has returned little profit to its new owner, John Hay Whitney, U.S. Ambassador to the Court of St. James's. This week, in the hope that what has been good for the thriving Mexico Ledger might also be good for the ailing Trib, "Jock" Whitney announced the surprise choice of Robert Mitchell White II, 44. as president and editor...
This involved yeoman duty for both correspondent and aide. Missing not a chance to make propaganda hay, the Soviets turned out big crowds to cheer at every stop. Harriman addressed an open-air rally at the new Siberian iron-mining town of Rudny, several times spoke over local radio stations, was everywhere interviewed by Russian newsmen.

Today, Fremont High is still turning out expert Bach graduates. But fewer are able to cash in on Bach's training: the school has become predominantly Negro, and Teacher Bach confronts a color line (though...
Reel Three: Coleman's political opponents were already making hay out of his FBI call, and the Wilkins statement was material for their hayrakes. "Wilkins gave Coleman a nice bouquet of roses wrapped in gold foil," cried State Democratic Chairman Bidwell Adam, charging that Coleman wanted "to sew up the 25,000 Negro votes." Barred by law from another term, Coleman is backing Lieutenant Governor Carroll Gartin. But in the aftermath of the Parker case, amid strong rumors that the FBI would have the killers this week, Coleman's support of Gartin was less than an asset. Said...
