John H. Crider, Nieman Fellow and former editor of the Boston Herald, last night disclosed to the CRIMSON that he would probably sign a radio and TV contract "in the next couple of days." Crider quit the Herald two weeks ago after publisher Robert B. Choate '20 refused to print his review of Senator Taft's recent book, "Foreign Policy for Americans...
...Lieut. General Lauris Norstad, 44, Allied Air Commander of SHAPE, admitted to New York Herald Tribune Columnists Tex McCrary and Jinx Falkenburg that he was getting on a bit. Said he: "When I was playing squash every day, not so long ago, I used to think of golf as an old man's game. Well, maybe it is, but now I'm playing golf."

Crider simmered, then called Choate back, told his wife (who answered) to "tell him he won't have an editor tomorrow." Then Crider made sure he wouldn't change his mind; he called the news services and the Times to say he was quitting the Herald. Three days later, the paper finally printed Crider's review. Along with it was a noncommittal New York Times review, and an announcement that the Herald would...
...China he assumes that someone in Washington must be guilty of conspiracy and treason. Franklin D. Roosevelt becomes Devil Number One and is pictured as both a raging-power-crazy-world-dictator and a senile piece of flotsam at the same time. Devil Number Two includes the N.Y. Times, Herald Tribune, Harpers, Atlantic Monthly, and Saturday Evening Post and assorted "Internationalists." Mr. Flynn really believes that these Devils drugged the American Mind into unconsciousness while they wrapped up Asia and gave it to Stalin with best wishes. As evidence he points to twenty-three books that disagree with...
