Kirby has always stayed in the background, is expected to leave active operation of Alleghany to younger men. Among them: Vice President and Secretary David W. Wallace, 34, Vice President and Director Thomas J. Deegan, 47, Young's right-hand man, and Kirby's son, Fred M., 38. Still to be decided on: a chairman for the New York Central to succeed Bob Young, who left his wife his entire personal estate, valued last week at more than $6,000,000, plus substantial real-estate holdings...
With cocky confidence, Fullmer chose again the same tactics that won him the title. Bulling in from outside, he lunged for Robinson's lean, graceful body, whistling home numbing roundhouse rights and ripping uppercuts.

This proved that mesons can be mirror twins (like right-hand and left-hand gloves) and still not behave in the same way. After the conclusive run of the experiment, says Dr. Lederman, "I called Lee on the telephone and told him, 'You're in!' " Parity was dead...
...Hampshire's Styles Bridges was sobered by an obvious thought: "Let us not talk about Bill as though he were no longer our colleague. Instead let us hail the fact that for two more years his matchless leadership will be found in the No. 1 seat on the right-hand side of the aisle." In the No. i seat, the hero of the hour sat stoically staring ahead, grinned occasionally, until the last of 29 colleagues had hurled a rose petal...
