...Florida's easygoing capital of Tallahassee (pop. 42,000), the new-found Negro weapon of the bus boycott proved to have a sharp and painful double edge last week. For five weeks, while Negroes refused to ride segregated buses (TIME, June 18), Negro and white civic leaders tried to work out a solution. Despite some broad concessions by the all-white city commission, e.g., first-come-first-served seating (but no side-by-side mixing of races), the Negroes held out doggedly for complete abolition of segregation−or nothing. Last week, acknowledging an all too effective 60% loss...
Into Riot. In orderly ranks in the early morning, they marched on the city (pop-359,000). All wore work clothes, some carried hammers on their shoulders. On the way to town they persuaded office workers and tram employees to join them. At 11 a.m., now a vast crowd, they gathered in front of City Hall. A Communist official tried to speak to them from the top of a public-address truck.

Outwardly, Eero (pronounced arrow) Saarinen (rhymes with far-'n-then) looks like a country family doctor, dresses with the casualness of a young college prof, prefers to live clear of the cities, in the rolling countryside of Bloomfield Hills, Mich. (pop. 2,100), 18 miles from downtown Detroit. His headquarters is a simply constructed, often cluttered office shed he designed for himself, just two minutes' drive from his home over winding country roads. Even with an office staff of 43, Saarinen's is a small operation by comparison with the major U.S. architectural organizations, e.g., Skidmore, Owings...
