...exist. Actually the school cannot guarantee positions for more than five or ten years in the future. They plan for the future, hope for the future, but can do nothing definite until their budget is on a more stable footing. It is like a runner who hurdles a wide hole confident that he will land on the other side. Public Health today vaguely hopes the other side is there...
Like TIME'S U.S. and Canadian circulation office, in Chicago (about which I wrote you in this space last summer), the Denver office uses hole-punched cards on which to record all the information we need about subscribers. Names & addresses, however, are printed on the cards, and the space provided for them is limited to four short lines.

Two days later, playing before a buzzing, unbelieving gallery, she smacked another...
Filmed largely around Jackson Hole, Wyo., Shane bulges with authentic sights & sounds. As the yarn plunges forward scene after scene hints at the pleasures and hardships of frontier life: homesteaders dancing and setting off homemade explosives at a July 4 party; bloody fistfighting in a saloon; little girls solemnly watching a sow with her sucklings; the ring of hand axes against a stump; tumbleweed brushing the legs of jittery horses; a harmonica solo of taps as a pine coffin is lowered into a hilltop grave Without recourse to tricky 3-D photography and Polaroid glasses, Stevens, with ordinary Technicolor camera...
