...Louis had never heard the sad sound before. Last week, after watching First Baseman Stan ("The Man") Musial go hitless in four times at bat, after watching him make two errors and boot away a game with the Dodgers, 5-3, Busch Field bleacherites finally blew up. They booed the best Cardinal of them...
...full columns in your Aug. 6 issue of blather about Dems and Catholics and the prospects of combination of them to "help muffle the issue"? The issue in 1952 was Korea and the Dems' sad handling of that situation. If "softness toward Communism" can be construed to mean softheadedness toward Korea, your speculation on the chances of a Roman Catholic Veep helping the Dems win in '56 could be justified only if Father Rigney were a candidate.

Exulted the New York Herald Tribune's Eugenia Sheppard: "Dior has designed a collection for the men this time. The kept lady look...
...Sound of Awe. Shocked and sad dened, the Times added an obituary to its growing list of assignments for next-day's paper. By the time the story was buttoned up, the Times had 20,000 words spread across seven pages. Almost its entire front page was devoted to the shipwreck, with three pictures of the sinking Andrea Doria and the wounded Stockholm. For the lead, the Times called on Pulitzer-Prizewinner Meyer Berger, who had sat at his desk all day stitching together fragments from Times reporters, wire copy and the ship lines. His story spread across four...
