...unthinkable that Clifford would not go to Rutgers, the alma mater of his father and uncle Clarence. His mother (now a spry 75, still lives in Poughkeepsie) could muster part of the money, and Clifford made the rest by working at odd jobs, which included playing the pipe organ at churches on Sunday. In his junior year, Clifford met Ruth Miriam Smith, a freshman at the New Jersey College for Women. They were married four years later, now have two daughters, a son and one granddaughter, who calls her grandfather by a nickname that has clung to him since...

Liu's name now follows Mao's on all lists, and leads the rest when Mao's does not appear. Tall, gaunt Liu Shao-chi is one of the least known of the Peking rulers...
Nehru Is the Culprit. The U.S. is active, too. Mickey Spillane's paperback epics can be bought in most bookstores. Copies of Living America, a USIS house organ with "beautiful illustrations ... of Americans participating in the good things of democratic life . . ." can be found in magazine racks of Indian aircraft and in university reading rooms, where one Indian in 20,000 can see them and be impressed. Redding's verdict: the Communists are winning the propaganda battle...
