...Soviet Union now concluded its test series? This brought forth the whimsical Khrushchev: "We stop in the evening and start in the morning." He was asked what would happen to Vyacheslav Molotov, who last week grimly left Vienna for home-and seemed on the verge of being expelled from the Communist Party, together with other "antiparty" heretics. This summoned up the confident Khrushchev. Said he airily: "Molotov belongs to the past...
...Schrotel set about remaking Cincinnati's white-hatted police force with an approach that was-and still is-tough and realistic. "The reins," he says, "are real tight." Overweight cops are suspended by Schrotel, himself a trim handballer. Men who show up in sloppy uniforms risk being sent home-and docked a day's pay.

"No check is good," replied the Colonel, his eyes...
...husband still wanted her, he had simply to appeal to the courts, and the judge would obligingly sentence her to the Bait al-Taah, the House of Obedience. Under this dread practice, the police would arrest the woman wherever they found her-on the street, in her parents' home-and hand her back to the aggrieved husband. He could then rent living quarters, usually below her usual standards, and furnish them minimally, having to satisfy the court that it is "between good neighbors." There he could keep her locked in her room, as in a prison...
