...base mortgages strictly on actual cost estimates. Some had actually worked for builders on the side, were wined and dined, given "girl parties," and outright bribes. Worst culprit: Assistant FHA Commissioner Clyde L. Powell, 58, boss of the rental-housing program since 1942, who is now serving a one-year jail sentence for refusing to answer a grand jury's questions.

Even though a special committee on occasions grants a one-year examination stay to exceptional cases, most students of history must take the generals irrespective of the date on which they transfer. The prospective late-comer, faced with the unattractive alternative of undergoing a detailed examination in history or transferring to another field, too often chooses the latter...
