...acre ranch where he raises and hunts game birds. One of his recent tasks has been to prop up the Dillingham image. Earnings have slumped because of a drop in construction contracts; Brother Ben Dillingham, 46, was defeated last fall in a race for the U.S. Senate; and Henry Kaiser, particularly, has been giving the Dillinghams some stiff new island competition.

An amateur horticulturist, he decided to grow quality apples in Hawaii, where only mediocre ones have been able to withstand the heat. When the first tree died from...
...tall, gangling youth with the Kaiser Wilhelm mustache was a model of self-discipline at the University of Freiburg.

Whiting; Humanities S-115, "Thought and Literature of the Renaissance" with the debonair Walter J. Kaiser; or Philosophy S-185, "Existentialism," a course not given for the past few years during the winter term. Also at this time is a course never offered before, Comparative Literature S-174, "Modern Greek Literature." This could be one of the most exciting courses of the summer, and is given by a visiting Oxfordian...
...this week's issue he will find them all, including a cover story on the Pope, written by Religion Editor John Elson and based on voluminous research filed from Rome by Bureau Chief Robert E. Jackson and Vatican Correspondent Robert B. Kaiser, who fortnight ago was honored for the "best magazine reporting of foreign affairs" by the Overseas Press Club in New York. Along with these main stories are special reports growing out of the news-a guide to the major Negro organizations battling for civil rights, and a closer look at what Britain's Labor Party would...
