Professionally compelled to get the facts, reporters have long resorted to deception. As far back as 1886, a brash young journalist who called herself Nel lie Bly feigned insanity to expose the inhuman conditions in a mental hospital. And in 1919, Herbert Bayard Swope passed himself off as a diplomat, outfitted with cutaway coat and chauffeured limousine, to provide a firsthand account of peace-treaty negotiations at Versailles. Last week, as the result of a National Labor Relations Board decision, the concept of what journalists call "enterprising reporting" was subjected to Government review...
...History, it's the last time ever that Crane Brinton will teach. Enough said. People who miss out on Brinton should remember that Near Eastern Languages 190 will be given again next Fall.

Invitations were already out from the rival stores, Alexander's and Ohrbach's, not only for big press showings of originals and their duplicates in mid-September, but also to such big names as the Duchess of Windsor and Mrs. Nel son Rockefeller, who would help attract a glittering crowd to public displays a week later.

His party's newspaper warned of the possibility of a dictatorship, and promised that in such a case "the people will mobilize massively to overthrow the regime." At week...
...What few realized was the extent of Landon's "a la Haydn" restoration: fully one-third of the opera was pure Landon. So skillful was the reweaving job that even Director Werner Duggelin and Conductor Alberto Erede were taken in. Questioned about the major aria, "Quanti diversi sentimenti nel cuor!" (How many emotions are in my breast!) in the second act, Duggelin unhesitatingly replied: "Oh, that is Haydn, beyond any doubt. Of course, I know Landon did a job of restoration. But as a professional, one knows what and where, of course." Echoed Erede: "That is Haydn, of course...
