...allied subjects (tuition for the course: $2,520) in an ornate, five-story Fifth Avenue building, decorated more like a Renaissance palace than a school. In the past 17 years Hartman has handed out awards to about 50 companies for "exemplifying the best in American design." Sample winners: Ford, Motorola, Ronson lighters, General Electric (for a plastic furniture covering), Kaiser-Frazer, Elgin, Parker, United Air Lines (for its Mainliner interiors), Packard, the Chicago Tribune (for "being inspirational to students of design...
...contrast to the Kefauver hearings, when TIME was the only sponsor, eight advertisers (LIFE, Longines-Wittnauer, Motorola, United Fruit, American Oil Co., Collier's, Newsweek, United Air Lines) took over segments of the MacArthur processional on TV. They got their money's worth: the MacArthur show was TV's biggest & best job to date...
...Quintupling present plane production would mean about 15,000 planes a year, about 5,800 more than one month's production at World War II's peak. Military electronic production is small; quadrupling it will be an easy job for the enormous new electronics industry.

At year's end the U.S. had only 1,000 tanks on order, and was producing only a small...

He restlessly roams the stage and studio audience, leaps from piano stool to microphone and back, urgently seizes and spurns his fellow actors, addresses furious asides to his network, his sponsor (Motorola) and other comics. He hymned his nose's birthday ("It was the first time in history that a nose outweighed the child!"); sang (with Stooge Candy Candido) an appealing duet called The Pussy Cat Song; displayed an entertaining low comedy that is as innocent as it is rare...
...defense cash will not be spent for many months. Radio and television makers, who had expected to be disrupted by immense defense orders, found no such thing happening. A few big electronic orders were placed last week: Emerson Electric Manufacturing Co. got a $100 million Air Force & Navy contract; Motorola, Inc. raced to complete a rush order for two-way radios for Army jeeps. But President Robert C. Sprague of the Radio-Television Manufacturers Association predicted that the industry would turn out 6,000,000 TV sets this year, 20% more than it had planned...
