...History Department will have its own library for the first time in 15 years, Foster McC. Palmer, associate librarian for reference and circulation, said yesterday. Primarily for History concentrators and graduate students, the library will be opened in Widener this September...
...need for a History library has been felt for a long time," Palmer said. He explained that it was "just a fluke" that there has been none since the books in the special History, Government, and Economics reading room were absorbed into the Lamont collection...
...guess you all know the fellow on my right," said the TV announcer, and -sure enough-the man with the California tan and the strychnic smile was Arnold Palmer, 34, the No. 1 money-winner in golf. In nine seasons on the pro tour, Palmer had pocketed $473,008.

Demaret had not won a tournament in seven years; the closest he had come was second in the 1961 P.G.A. Seniors. Jimmy did not win at Palm Springs either-but he stubbornly clung to the lead until Tommy Jacobs beat him with a 9-in. putt in a sudden-death playoff. Jacobs is muscular, nervous and 28. Said...
