Victor Ibbotson jogged through a slowdown lap, gulped a pint of milk, said the race had gone according to plan. "I wanted a fast time because that's the only way to beat Delany, since he's a fast finisher." Gasped Delany: "A fabulous race. I shall dream about it for years...

Like It or Lump It. Last week, on NBC for Bristol-Myers (Ipana toothpaste), pint-sized (5 ft., 98 Ibs.) Kathryn Murray catapulted through a sketch as a theater usherette pantomiming a gypsy musical, and rode herd on a typical Party: a swirl of waltzers, a specialty spot by Dancers Rod Alexander and Bambi Lynn, an amateur ballroom-dancing contest between three couples aged five to eleven, and, in the closing moments, an appearance by tall, erect Arthur Murray, 62, in time to waltz his wife away...

They promptly developed what looked like mild, temporary, schizophrenic symptoms. With similar blood from normal subjects there was no such reaction.

Webster asked Littlefield to do another errand the next day, to go over to the hospital and fetch a pint or so of blood for an experiment. This was a strange request, Littlefield thought, for the professor had never previously needed blood in his experiments. It was not the first strange request Webster had made of him that week. On Monday he had asked several questions about the construction of the vaults under the building, where remains from the dissecting rooms were placed.
