After Pioneering. Four miles northeast of Ike's new address (Route 10, Box 218 Gettysburg) is sleepy Gettysburg (pop. 7,046) and the little Presbyterian Church which Lincoln visited after he spoke. There Ike's presidential office, newly daubed a pale green, has been fashioned from a first-floor room at the post office, usually occupied by Town Postmaster Lawrence Oyler, who has moved into the mailroom. Ike's Sherman Adams and staff will work on the second floor, confining presidential business to the post office and respecting Ike's passion for privacy on the farm...
After a prosaic civil ceremony in the city hall of Versailles, pale, black-browed Five-and-Dime Heiress Barbara Hutton Mdivani Haugwitz-Reventlow Grant Troubetskoy Rubirosa, 43 this week, ex-countess, twice an ex-princess, motored back to her rose-festooned Ritz Hotel suite in Paris with her sixth groom. Having demoted herself to a baroness, Barbara beamed nonetheless at her attentive husband, once Nazi Germany's top tennis ace, Baron Gottfried von Cramm, 46. He had met Barbara about 18 years before in Cairo. Amidst toasts at the Ritz, the baron recalled: "We liked each other very much...
...luxurious sound, with plenty of pleasing details such as the soft zips on the xylophone that punctuate an Act II party scene. The vocal melody sometimes soars, e.g., the parting duet ("O gentle heart, would we again were drifting/ Far from this world of waking"), but is often pale and fragile as the illustrations in English children's books.

His one baldly passionate scene is the orchestral storm that accompanies the lovers to bed behind their curtain...
...blue-jacketed youths sat tense and quiet as an announcement was made from the stage. Then, as they came to their feet in a blaze of applause, a 119-piece band blared a fanfare, and a dozen spotlights lanced through the darkened arena to center on a wiry, suddenly pale young man who stood awkwardly rubbing the sweat from his palms. Joe Moore, who runs a farm near Liberty, about halfway between the communities of Accident and Nameless in Tennessee's Cumberland foothills, had just been named 1955's Star Farmer of America...
During Bridgeport's first 15 months at the plant, the elephant stayed deathly pale. By mid-1955, losses totaled more than $1,750,000. But Steinkraus was still confident that he could make aluminum production pay. Last week the company was running in the black, and Bridgeport's elephant was getting rosier all the time. The company plans to buy the plant from the Air Force when its lease runs out in 1958, is thinking of adding a rolling mill and will nearly treble the number of its employees as it expands...
