Pepelasis saw the lawyer and offered him a demanding job in legal research. His assignment: to review the entire body of Greek legislation and unearth obsolete laws that are frustrating modern agricultural development. His salary: 7,000 drachmas ($233) a month. There were other offers, but this was the best. A day or two before TIME appeared Georgakakis actually had his first chance, thanks to Queen Mother Frederika, who had induced the Federation of Greek Industries to give him a job at 3,000 drachmas a month...
Strollers wear jingle bells at their ankles, beads or flowers at their throats, and strum guitars or tootle flutes. It is not rare to see a Haight Street hippie put a dime in a parking meter, then flake out along the curb for a legal dose of sun tan. Wall posters, in the style of China's Red Guard movement, abound-most of them signed "Love" or "Peace" and bearing such timeless messages as "Gypsy come home-your mother is pushed out of shape...

Pusey, however, has written the committee a letter stating that the University should wait until it receives a subpoena before taking a stand. Pusey said he wants to postpone any decision until he can understand the terms of HUAC's possible request...
...when he first came to public attention in the novels of Sapper (H. C. McNeile), he was an overblown Blimp who hated "Bolshies" and took peculiar pleasure in flogging "Hebrews." In 1929, the cur was portrayed by Ronald Colman as a sort of homey Holmes - a friendly legal beagle who spent more time rolling his big sad eyes at the lady customers than he did hounding down the villain. In Deadlier than the Male, the adaptable Drummond shows up as the type of sleuth who happens to be in style: the beagle is redecorated as a wavy-haired wolf (Richard...
