...What to do about Indiana's white-headed Paul McNutt, first and boldest Democratic candidate for Franklin Roosevelt's job (TIME, July 10), was a question which Mr. Roosevelt answered last week by inviting Mr. McNutt to become, after resigning as High Commissioner to the Philippines, director of the new, consolidated Federal Security Agency. In that post, at Washington. Candidate McNutt could be kept under surveillance and control, throttled if necessary. Or he could be built up as heir-apparent if that seemed more desirable. Able, ambitious executive that he is, he could be counted on in either...
...Mescalero Apache reservation in southern New Mexico last week went many a Navaho, Comanche, Kiowa and Oklahoma Apache tribesman, plus hundreds of white vacationists, to join the 800 Mescaleros in a tribal ceremony.

The man who told Sonja Henie she could be another Garbo was an ebullient Irish-American, Dennis Russell Scanlan of St. Paul, who ran, and runs today, a prosperous surgical-instruments business in Sweden and Manhattan.

Strauss of St. Paul, Minn, (sometimes described as "the master skate man of the world"), for about $30, are several supposedly lucky pairs. Despite these precautions, she has taken falls which she believes would have killed a less experienced skater, got a brain concussion when she tripped over the edge of the rink making Happy Landing...
Novelist Boo weaves a leisurely ring around the triangle of Dagrun Styhr, her husband, Paul, and Steffen Thomasgard, the man whom Dagrun had first loved and whom she returns to see. So slow-paced is the book that even its climax, when Dagrun and Steffen are marooned overnight on a deserted island, seems unexciting. Sigrid Boo thinks her book would make a good movie, hopes that fellow Scandinavian Garbo will play the lead. It would take the Garbo face and voice to put umph in such a gentle...
