Massachusetts' swart little Congressman Joe Martin, who since January 1937 has been Chairman of the Republican Congressional Committee, was awaiting only the result of the first Congressional primary of the year in Illinois next week before going into action as the key-man in what may well turn out to be the most significant election battle in his party's history...
...Generalissimo had thus won "The Key to Barcelona," as even the Leftists have called Lérida, but it was 80 miles to the keyhole. With General Yague just starting keyholeward this week, twelve assorted Rightist forces were all making unchallenged claims to sweeping victories all the way from the French frontier which was smothered with refugees, down to Teruel.

...Chase (H. R. Sokal Film) soars over broad slopes and frowning crags in the Austrian Tyrol with shiny-nosed Leni Riefenstahl and world-famed Skimeister Hannes Schneider in the lead.

...body was not acted upon by any forces it would continue in uniform motion indefinitely. This was one of the laws formulated by Newton a generation later. When Newton formulated the principle that the force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, he had the key to the orbits of the planets, and what looked like the key to the operation of the whole universe. The universe, in operation, was a multitude of masses acting instantaneously on one another at a distance-the forces being exerted along straight lines connecting the masses...
