...banners picked up the story. Many were draped in black, to show that a member of the lodge had been killed in the pits since the last gala. Pictures and slogans told of hopes and fears.

When the W.F.T.U. was founded at Paris in 1945, the C.I.O., with which Bridges' militant International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's Union is still affiliated, was a member. The A.F.L. was not. Last January the C.I.O., fed up with fighting the Communist line in the W.F.T.U., quit it cold.

Last week revolutionary guns again slammed and chattered in Guatemala City, but there was no longer an Arana to quiet them. He had been assassinated. The outbreak was an unplanned, furious, futile attempt to avenge him by ousting the government...
...Blondell for a week's stand in Happy Birthday at Princeton, N.J., said Joan used "vile and abusive language" to his cast. Joan admitted that she may have said "gosh" or "darn it." Mr. Kennedy said she threw a $40 silver hand mirror at either him or another member of the cast. Miss Blondell said it was not a mirror, it was a Kleenex and she wished it had been a brick. Princeton Police Chief Edward Mahan said all he knew was that he got this call from the theater and sent three cops to break up the brawl...
