Time to Shine. "You know," says Mike Stepovich, "a fellow doesn't quite realize, right after his election or appointment to such a job, just how much it means. People say hello, everything's gay and fine. And then comes that time-the time when you know you're going to have to stop just showing your teeth and start producing." Mike started producing right after his inauguration in June 1957. Says Matilda, who calls him "Mali" (Slavic for "little boy"): "When we were living in Fairbanks and Mali was practicing law, the jacket pocket on every...
...Squaw Hill, in the three-story, columned gubernatorial mansion, Mike pursues a rollicking, split-second family life.

Ernst's proof came from "confidential sources" in Dictator Fulgencio Batista's Cuba. To back up Batista (who got five planeloads of arms in March from Trujillo), Ernst solemnly presented an affidavit from...
What chills, what fears, what seductive impressions crossed the Russian's mind as at last he saw the place he had drawn so often and so critically? He cautiously refused to say, but did get out his drawing book for a sketch from life (see cut) that will presumably serve him well when he once again sits down at his drawing board in Russia...
