...this: "Some of the boys from the old ladies' home up the river [i.e., Sing Sing] . . . came down to the waterfront and made good," said he recently. "I'm proud to have my picture taken with them and proud to be in their company." In this cozy setup, John M. ("Cockeye") Dunn was a big man. He didn't belong to Joe Ryan's union but he ate at Joe's dinners, and his Greenwich Village mob ran the Chelsea District piers. Everybody knew Johnny Dunn was a killer, but nobody could...
...double demand setup applies to all basic courses. General Education has solved the problem for some departments, particularly in lecture courses.

It is one of the rashest-expensive, elaborate, and about as intimate as army maneuvers. This is not a wise setup for Grace & Paul Hartman (Angel in the Wings). At their best as nightclub zanies, the Hartmans are dwarfed by so large a landscape-and rather flattened out by their lines...
