...husband's arrival, Liliana Sotgiu would appear on foot. The cops put 110 agents on the case, some of them elaborately disguised. They discovered that Sotgiu, the Communist moralizer, was causing his wife to have sexual relations with an 18-year-old grocer's son named Sergio Rossi, while Sotgiu and others looked on. The police obtained a full confession from young Sergio Rossi, and learned there had been a passionate correspondence between Lim and Liliana. Other episodes involved whips, and Sotgiu was not merely a spectator, but had several young partners...

In 1943 the Army notified Lomanitz that he was to be drafted. Dr. Condon wrote Oppenheimer about this, as Oppenheimer put it, "in a great sense of outrage." Oppenheimer protested Lomanitz draft call (to no avail), and later tried to get Lomanitz released from the Army to return...
...further serious threat to the successfulness of the edict is the problem of the resultant unemployment situation created among the teachers themselves. "There is much apprehension among the Negro school personnel," Rossi maintained. "Especially above the teacher level, among the principals and superintendents, the threat of 'white supremacy' is still very strong." The consolidation of the two-system school system in many states means that many teachers would find themselves out of jobs...
