...doctor with the sort of character that practice makes perfect. Dr. Sam Abelman (Paul Muni) lives and works in one of the worst neighborhoods in Brooklyn, loves and cares for his patients day and night, though most of them are too ignorant to appreciate him and too poor to pay his bills. The thing
More than half the money ($11.2 million) is earmarked for improving faculties at eight of the schools; it will pay for raising key professors to senior rank, financing faculty loans and summer fellowships, will set up 15 new professorships and help lure top engineers into teaching.

As the British Comets and U.S. Boeing 707s complete their first full year of operation, the planes are proving far more efficient than most airlines expected. The lines first thought that one big, swift jet would do the work of two conventional planes; the ratio is closer to one-to-three. So far, with only a relatively few jets in operation, the new planes are justifying their $5,500,000 price tag and then some. Pan American reports more than 90% load...
