...recalls June Havoc, successful cineminx, Broadwayward girl (Sadie Thompson, Pal Joey), Shakespearean (A Midsummer Night's Dream) and grown-up (41) kid sister of Stripper Gypsy Rose Lee. June, who was worked so hard as a child star that she never learned how to write properly in longhand, took two years to type out the saga of her youth, called it Early Havoc (Simon & Schuster; $3.95). Though some of it covers the same ground Sister traveled in her own autobiographical story, Gypsy,* which appeared in a musical version on Broadway last week (see THEATER), the book is a remarkable...
...taxicab union headquarters, discovered-by the simple reportorial expedient of training binoculars on the visitors, and now and then riding a city bus past the building for a close-in gander-that it was crawling with thugs, hoods and hired guns. Their nine-part expose mercilessly pinned Joey Glimco as the leader of this unsavory band, nominated Glimco for repeated uncommunicative appearances before federal rackets investigators. To this day Glimco spits at Smith whenever the two meet...
...funerals, Smith says. "I get a good idea of who's in the mob and whom they're dealing with, and what's new." Other reporters, possibly in envy, suggest that this kind of intimate coverage can only goad gangland into throwing something more substantial than Joey Glimco's cud.

"If you cover the mob," he says, "you expect to get cursed and spat...

When he first took over, he earmarked some $25 million for an industrial development program that is beginning to produce results. Government-aided surveys turned up fabulous deposits of iron ore in Newfoundland's mainland territory of Labrador; one is now being mined, the other is scheduled to go into production in the 1960s. In Newfoundland and Labrador, surveyors uncovered promising finds of copper, lead and zinc, asbestos, fluorspar, gypsum and uranium. Perhaps even more significant...
...Newfoundland, where Premier Joey Smallwood is renowned as one of labor's best friends, one of labor's worst friends got a toe hold almost surreptitiously. Jimmy Hoffa and his racket-ridden International Brotherhood of Teamsters quietly set up two locals with 1,200 members. Alarmed, Smallwood last week bounced into the provincial legislature to denounce Hoffa & Co. as "pimps, panderers, white slavers, murderers, embezzlers, extortionists and dope peddlers." The legislators speedily responded with a sledgehammer law: the provincial government can now dissolve any local upon evidence that a "substantial number" of its union officers have been convicted...
