Fearless Jack is a well-knit 49-year-old fellow with a pugilist's jaw, who knows how to handle himself when things get rough in the men's washroom. The potential opposition was either cool or only slightly smoldering, however. "We give our critics a free hand," said Managing Editor Turner Catledge, betraying no surprise at Critic Gould's intrafamilial sabotage. "Our first obligation is to our readers...
