...Nikita Khrushchev played his trump, proposed an emergency big-name conference in Geneva* this week on the Middle East, to include himself, President Eisenhower, Britain's Macmillan, France's De Gaulle, India's Nehru and U.N.

Every word in the Soviet strong man's message, which bore the sound of his own bluff rhetoric rather than Foreign Ministry jargon, conveyed a sense of urgency: "The guns are already beginning to shoot . . . this awesome moment in history . . .

...Anne County. He ran a regular ''Clubs and the Law'' column that named racketeers and pinpointed the clubs they visited. When the machine-controlled Virginia Beach Sun-News reported a gathering of racketeers, politicians and their ladies as a social item, Dunn printed a guest list, helpfully followed each racketeer's name with his criminal record.
