...shop is filled with a conglomeration of exotic glue pots, picture frames, the smell of turpentine, prints from the Ming Dynasty, welded metal sculpture, mobiles, folk pottery, and usually an exhibition of the most abstract of abstracts by one young artist or another. Paul has recently come down to earth with a small shop on the street level devoted entirely to ceramics. His personality can be felt everywhere in a quiet, yet intense sort of way as he arranges things or looks up as someone comes in the door...

Seeking a constitutional king in the relatively neutral ground of Denmark, the Norwegian Parliament offered the crown to the second son of the prolific royal House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg (whose members today include King Paul of Greece, Prince Philip of Great Britain and the Duchess of Kent). The young "sailor Prince," as he was called, agreed only if the people of Norway confirmed his choice in a national plebiscite.

Paul Block's worldly, well-edited Blade not only stood by its rule but also last week gave Toledoans of equal good will a lesson that few will soon forget...
Publisher Block did not crow to his readers. A research chemist who earned degrees from Yale, Harvard and Columbia before taking over following the death of Paul Block Sr. in 1941, dark-haired, retiring Paul Block, 46, dispassionately analyzed Toledo's "evil hoax" both in the evening Blade and its sister paper, the stodgy morning Times (41,841), which had also avoided the racial tag but stirred few complaints.
