...afford the easy-out of strong feelings. Nikita Khrushchev, under control again, switched from strong words to soft. One should bury memories of the past, he said, because vengeance is not a good adviser; there must be good relations between Russians and Germans. A cold correctness replaced the honest heat of emotion. When the delegates strode out of the palace that day, Adenauer's face was grim. So far the conference, said a German, had produced only "an open exchange of blows...
...summer heat melted bis congregation, the Rev. Richard L. Key of Yuma, Ariz, took a bold step. To publicize his nondenominational First Christian Church, he signed a contract with radio station KOLD to sponsor local night baseball games. Sports-loving Pastor Key, 37, a pitcher in Yuma's adult softball league and a sometime newscaster, did not bear down too heavily on salvation between the innings.

At about this time, his fingers stick to a lady's jewel case, and soon they are stroking the lady herself with such skill that she begs him to steal the rest of her valuables too. He obliges...
...Heberlein and Co., and France's Billion et Cie. were trying to find a way to make ersatz wool. They failed to do so, but in the process made a nylon yarn that would stretch. In the Heberlein method, fibers are twisted, and the twist is set by heat, a sort of permanent-wave process. Then the fibers are broken down into single filaments, and those with a right-hand twist are plaited with others with a left-hand twist. The result is a soft, curly yarn that will stretch and snap back...
