President Eisenhower opened the American League season last week with an easy, overhand toss (see NEWS IN PICTURES), then grabbed his shoulder with his left hand and made a grimace of pain. His bursitis was acting up. Washington Senators Manager Charley Dressen suggested a vibrator, but Ike had a treatment of his own: eight days of golf in Augusta. Curiously enough, his bursitis seems both to be improved by golf and to improve his game. Golf's controlled, smooth motions help the presidential shoulder, and the controlled, smooth motions made necessary by bursitis subdue Ike's tendency...

So reassuring were his words that next day the party executive decided, by a vote of 16 to 7, not to kick Nye out of the party after...
...trials were conducted "by officials sick with the weariness left by a great war." The code that governed them was a mongrel code, "a compromise between the English and American procedures." It proved to be diametrically opposed to democratic German law because it bound the accused men, on pain of perjury, to speak the truth on oath, whereas German law would have given them .the right to lie to the full in their own defense. To the prisoners and their many supporters in Germany, Nuremberg was a put-up piece of legal chicanery, fit only to arouse derisive laughter...
