That evening, after the dispatch of a dozen roses and a note ("American Beauties for an American beauty"), the talks were cordially resumed, and for two weeks flowers and interviews followed in nightly succession at the Callas home, restaurants, cafes and at recording sessions. Interspersed were interviews by De Carvalho and other TIME reporters in Italy and elsewhere with the singer's maids, masseuse, fitter, designer, critics, conductors, fellow singers, friends, foes and the chief of La Scala's claque. De Carvalho and his colleagues scoured Italy for leads. He flew 1,300 miles to Ankara to talk...
Landing in Washington, President Eisenhower turned his attention to another facet of Moscow relations-a personal note to Ike from Premier Bulganin calling on the U.S. to join with Russia in bringing H-bomb tests to a halt (but making no mention of the U.S. insistence on safeguards). Ike was nettled because Moscow had published the text before he had seen it. He was angry because Bulganin noted that "certain prominent public figures in the United States"-i.e., Adlai Stevenson -had proposed a plan to stop H-bomb tests.

...Indians beat New Hampshire 13 to 0, and Brown 14 to 7, and tied Holy Cross 7 to 7, but they were upset by Penn 14 to 7. Since Brown beat Columbia, and the Lions beat Harvard, one might conclude that Dartmouth rated an edge. But one might also note that the Crimson is back on its every-other-game schedule of two years ago when the varsity lost to a weak local team, upset Cornell, lost to Columbia, and then beat the Indians. Perhaps the safest thing that can be said of this game is that its outcome rides...
...another sour note can be struck immediately without ruining the rest of the piece, the introduction provided by Ruth Nanda Anshen is a mighty blast, especially for such a small trumpet. In her forward to the series, (Miss or Mrs.?) Anshen manages to embrace the Declaration of Independence, the rights of man, the United Nations' charter, Ruth Benedict, Buddha, and the hobo party platform in a prospectus with little perspective...
