...knife"-has been a target of Fleet Street snarls for months. What had suddenly turned the snarls into a shrill chorus of rage was President Eisenhower's approaching tour of Western Europe's capitals and a surge of British fear that Adenauer would somehow persuade Ike "to keep the cold war alive." To the Daily Mail (circ. 2,071,054), Adenauer was reminiscent of Adolf Hitler, "who ranted and raved to show what a great man he was." To Lord Beaverbrook's Express, Adenauer was "willing to prolong the quarrel between Russia...
...Young Homemakers, with a combined circulation of 1,826,360, plus Astounding Science Fiction, Air Progress, Hobbies for Young Men, Baseball Annual and Football Annual. Newhouse plans to blend Street & Smith's Charm (circ. 635,706) with Conde Nast's Glamour (circ. 671,441), will otherwise keep the firm intact as a subsidiary of Conde Nast. Street & Smith lost better than $200,000 last year, but this is a condition that Sam Newhouse, whose 14 newspapers and seven radio and TV stations comprise a productive $175 million chain, intends to correct...
...Actress Johanna von Koczian, in her American screen debut. She is the only woman on the Continent whom Mario can trust to love him for love alone. Reason: she is stone deaf.

...when starlings go home to roost anyway. Also, the starlings were back next day. Very interesting, said the bird man, but these things take time. And had the scientists seen his credentials? In Indianapolis, for instance, where everything from klaxon horns to electric cords had been used to keep starlings from roosting at the U.S. courthouse and post office building, the bird man turned up last January. He spent a few hours on the courthouse roof, dangling what seemed to be a silver rope over the ledges and sills. Two days later there were new colonies of starlings...
...trade long before she ever saw a movie. She roamed India with her actor father, joined his touring company at the age of seven, was singing Indian classical music in public at eight, was barely 13 when she landed her first playback job. For a while, producers managed to keep her ignorant of her growing popularity. "They were afraid I would ask for more money," she explains. Eventually Lata caught on. By 1949 her movies were all over the country, and her songs were played everywhere, including remote rural areas where villagers clustered around wind-up gramophones listening to Lata...
