...bill, rammed through the Chamber of Deputies two weeks earlier by the government's two-thirds majority, is admirably democratic in form. It requires Frondizi to name government administrators, who must hold free elections of officers in each of the C.G.T.'s 138 member unions within 90 days. Unions recognized by the Labor Ministry will get tax exemptions, exclusive bargaining rights in their fields and compulsory checkoff of dues. Charges of unfair labor practices will be ruled on by a government board...
...Generation. The golf circuit belongs today to the younger men who have the stamina and ability to play in pressure-packed tournaments week after week, ten months of the year. With the 1958 tour two-thirds complete, three of golf's Young Turks hold a long lead in the earnings list: Arnold Palmer, 28, of Latrobe, Pa. ($40,478), Bill Casper, 27, of Chula Vista, Calif.

"You want Paul Anderson on the show?" Carroll aks hopefully. "Strongest man in the world. Hold you up over his head." Paar nods. Inside his dressing room, he sits down and studies a mimeographed "status report" of talent bookings; peremptorily he scrawls "O.K.," "No" or "Investigate" after each listing...
...running out next year. Last week Sonnabend reported that he had nine prospective bridegrooms with combined earnings before taxes of $30 million a year-more than enough, he said, to offset Studebaker's past losses. Sonnabend was eager to get on with the wedding, but Churchill wanted to hold up formal publication of the banns until the company's creditors have approved plans to recapitalize, make the debt load more manageable...
