...hurt but they could never stop the ponderous, night-hidden R.A.F. Fighter protection for U.S. daylight formations is neutralizing the Luftwaffe's newfangled rockets and its bombing technique against U.S. formations-so long as the bombers stay within escort range, which has not yet lengthened enough to embrace inner Germany. Many a U.S. gunner returns nowadays with ammunition boxes heaped high with unused shells...
Bizet's pulsing score remains intact-unswung, unsyncopated, unsentimentalized. (The recitatif has been ripped out, but Bizet did not write it: Carmen was originally a musical drama, not grand opera). Carmen's vivid plot remains unchanged. So does the inner nature of its people. But the scene of Carmen Jones is a U.S. Southern town where hip-swaying, head-tossing Carmen Jones works in a parachute factory. The Don José who wins her, loves her, loses her and kills her is a harassed M.P. corporal named Joe. The Micaela who loves and loses him is country-bred...
...bone itself shows any sign of damage to the skull's outer shell, a small, exploratory burr hole should be made at that spot.

Before him, at two curved tables, the inner and the outer bar, sat the wigged Crown Counsel and the Defense Attorneys. Their robes were black. Beyond them lolled a dozen U.S. newsgatherers and the 105 black & white citizens of Nassau who had come early enough to get seats. At one side of the shabby, formal room sat the prisoner at the bar, Count Marie Alfred de Fouguereaux de Marigny...
This is big news. From Sinkiang had come rumors of Red Army garrisons, secret torture chambers, murder, violence and the silent operation of agents of contending empires. Now there was peace on the inner frontiers of Asia. That peace had been achieved by a diplomatic feat as great as any in Chinese history, as significant as the abolition of extraterritoriality by the U.S. and Britain. It meant the practical recognition by the U.S.S.R. of China's status as a sovereign equal...
