Original Subscribers. Tidende stands in deeper debt to the Danish national character than to Berling family pride. It has never been a great paper, although consistently a good one. Created by royal dispensation, it remained stubbornly loyal to the throne, even after 1904, when the government began printing a newspaper of its own. But time has long since stranded Tidende's taproot conservatism; successive mass movements to the political left have forced the paper into the role of minority voice. Today a Radical-Liberal coalition is in power, and instead of swearing daily allegiance to the throne, Tidende finds...
...encounter. Guinness as Prince Feisal is finely serpentine, and Quinn is magnificent as the venal and violent Sheikh Auda abu Tayi, a great black hairy camel of a man who sucks up gold as a camel sucks up water, and then spews it out with a roar of patriarchal pride: "I am a river to my people!"

U.S.-British relations, rumbled the Paris financial daily, Information, "are today in a state of complete crisis." Cried the Daily Herald, summing up U.S. treatment of Britain: "Suez...

Machen was no classic heavyweight-only 23 of his 41 victories were by knockouts-but he was easily the most talented boxer in a division that was dominated by a bunch of classless pugs. He taunted opponents gleefully ("What's the matter-can't you hit me?"), beat them with eye-catching combination punches. Until 1958 he was undefeated; he ranked as the No. 1 challenger and seemed sure to get a crack at the title held by Floyd Patterson...
...African countries with 213 U.S. campuses. By working with the African branch offices of the African-American Institute, it seeks to solve the key problem: selecting the right students for the right campuses before they go to the U.S. Last week Director Henry issued a report that should stir pride all over Africa...
