They are some times nostalgic, but not for "the night we tore the Yale goalposts down" or for the good-natured camaraderie of their youth. Most represent a serious attempt to tell what they gained from Harvard, although for some, such as Dos Passos, the gain was not overly great: "It took me twenty years to discover that I did learn something at Harvard after all.

...Murrow's See It Now will include reports on Marian Anderson's upcoming tour of the Orient, the statehood problem of Alaska and Hawaii, and the rebirth of German industry.

...Affair to Remember (20th Century-Fox) drags Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr over as bumpy a road to love as Hollywood has ever contrived. Deborah is an elegantly kept (by Richard Denning) lady with a Park Avenue lust nest; Cary is a charm-laden bachelor on the verge of merging with America's heiress with the mostest (Neva Patterson).
